This R&D provides resources on the Affordable Care Act (ACA), also known as Obamacare. The law is in its third year and the open enrollment period for health insurance began this week. The Obama administration is hoping that increased penalties for going without health insurance will cause more people to seek out coverage on federal and state exchanges, but rising premiums and the closure of some healthcare cooperatives are giving ammunition to opponents of the legislation.
