AFFORDABLE CARE ACT

The Affordable Care Act provides Americans with better health security by putting in place comprehensive health insurance reforms that will:

Expand coverage
Hold insurance companies accountable
Lower health care costs
Guarantee more choice
Enhance the quality of care for all Americans

The Affordable Care Act actually refers to two separate pieces of legislation — the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (P.L. 111-148) and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (P.L. 111-152).

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is responsible for implementing laws passed by Congress related to Medicaid, the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and the Basic Health Program.

Nearly one in five U.S. adults lives with a mental illness (44.7 million).
