Summary:The Affordable Care Act changes the rating regulations governing the nongroup and small group markets while simultaneously encouraging enrollment through a combination of subsidies, tax credits, and tax penalties. Policymakers and other stakeholders are interested in understanding how these changes might affect health insurance enrollment, premiums, and other coutcomes to inform exchange implementation and planning. In this report, we estimate the effects of the Affordable Care Act on health insurance enrollment and premiums in ten states (Florida, Kansas, Louisiana, Minnesota, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Texas) and the nation overall, with a focus on outcomes in the nongroup and small group markets.
