Abstract in brief

  • The study analyzed how the Affordable Care Act (ACA) impacted disparities in healthcare access related to disability, age, income, race, and ethnicity by comparing data from 2008-2010 and 2015-2017.
  • Results showed that the ACA helped reduce some longstanding disparities, particularly for people with certain disabilities, young adults (19-25), and low-income families, by increasing access and reducing uninsurance.
  • However, significant gaps still remain, especially for individuals with disabilities and mental health issues, indicating that further policy actions are needed to fully close these disparities.
