While half of Americans get healthcare coverage from their employer, a rocky job market and increasing healthcare costs may push more people toward government-backed plans — and there are just two weeks left to enroll.
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace is a government-provided platform where uninsured Americans can purchase individual and family health plans, and often receive subsidized premiums depending on their income. Over 40 million Americans are covered under ACA as of 2023, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, setting a record since the ACA’s inception in 2010.
