State Data: What Has Happened to Health Coverage and Financing Under the Affordable Care Act?

As Congress presses forward with efforts to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, a new interactive map from the Kaiser Family Foundation provides a window into the changes in health insurance coverage and financing in each state under the 7-year-old law.

Map users can scroll over each state to see detailed breakdown of ACA-related data, including:

The map also shows the political party affiliations of U.S. senators in each state. Replacement legislation under consideration in Congress has the potential to affect every state’s Medicaid program and individual health insurance market.
