Adding to the questions, what does it exactly change about the way the healthcare system runs? (exclude bias) I'm asking because whenever you search for answers it's always like 'lines will increase' or 'poor people will now be better off' my question is simply what changes not what the results would be. Thankyu
The basic idea is that:
1) Everyone is required to buy health insurance. (Though many/most people with a job will still get it through their employer.)
2) The insurance companies are now required to take you on as a customer, regardless of any pre-existing conditions you have.
3) Low income people who would otherwise have trouble affording insurance are given subsidies to help pay for it.
