Issue Brief (Commonw Fund). 2014 Sep;25:1-15.
By the end of the first open enrollment period for coverage offered through the Affordable Care Act's marketplaces, increasing numbers of people said they found it easy to find a plan they could afford, according to The Commonwealth Fund's Affordable Care Act Tracking Survey, April-June 2014. Adults with low or moderate incomes were more likely to say it was easy to find an affordable plan than were adults with higher incomes. Adults with low or moderate incomes who purchased a plan through the marketplaces this year have similar premium costs and deductibles as adults in the same income ranges with employer-provided coverage. A majority of adults with marketplace coverage gave high ratings to their insurance and were confident in their ability to afford the care they need when sick.
根据联邦基金2014年4月至6月的《平价医疗法案追踪调查》，在通过《平价医疗法案》市场提供的保险首次开放注册期结束时，越来越多的人表示他们发现很容易找到自己负担得起的保险计划。低收入或中等收入的成年人比高收入成年人更有可能表示很容易找到负担得起的保险计划。今年通过市场购买保险计划的低收入或中等收入成年人，其保费成本和免赔额与相同收入范围、由雇主提供保险的成年人相似。大多数通过市场获得保险的成年人对他们的保险给予了高度评价，并对自己生病时支付所需医疗费用的能力充满信心。
