The Affordable Care Act, passed in 2010, established the Health Insurance Marketplace where people in the United States can enroll in quality health care plans. Depending on a person’s income, these plans can be made more affordable with tax credits and subsidies. Plans sold on the Marketplace are subject to quality and nondiscrimination standards, and have served an important role in lowering the nation’s uninsured rate.
