    Fact Sheet

    This state report explains how the ACA expands coverage in Tennessee, including a breakdown of how many uninsured people are eligible for Medicaid, how many are eligible for financial assistance to help them buy private insurance in the new Marketplace and how many will not receive any financial assistance at all.
