Urban’s scholars are among the nation’s leading experts on health coverage and its reform. Our research informed the development of the Massachusetts plan under Governor Romney, and our analyses of the plan’s strengths and weaknesses directly informed the design and implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Today, our scholars are a trusted source for comprehensive ACA analysis, tracking whether it is working as intended on local, state, and national levels. Since ACA’s passage, our findings have been mentioned thousands of times by both the law’s opponents and its champions—in the media, Congress, and Supreme Court hearings.
