Here are 3 numbers that are driving conversations amongst policymakers, legislators, and lobbyists in Florida's Capital City.
Since the Affordable Care Act (ACA) became law 14 years ago, the expansion of affordable healthcare access among adults ages 50 to 64 has increased significantly in Florida. ACA’s health insurance marketplaces have played a crucial role in this expansion as federal premium tax credits are more available than ever to Marketplace enrollees. On average all Florida health insurance consumers who receive premium tax credits save more than $700 every year on premiums. As health insurance continues to become more affordable under the ACA, more Floridians will be able to access the care they need, leading to improved health outcomes, economic benefits, and public health improvements. As policymakers in Tallahassee and beyond continue to evaluate and improve healthcare policies, ACA’s ongoing success should remain a critical focal point in securing the health and well-being of Floridians.
