Many research studies conducted in order evaluate the impact of affordable care act on health care access reveals that gaining the insurance coverage through the expansions and extension to the population increased the probability of having usual care, with its cost effectiveness and quality of care was pretty good and the studies also states the ACA decreased the number of uninsured Americans but also increased coverage to millions of Americans. The newly covered insurance was that the insurance allowed the children to stay on their parents insurance upto the age of 26, and is being achieved by the wide spread combination of all the usage of the insurance. The exchangers are the individuals who are combined with their medicaid insurance, as these exchanges are costly and they have to be payed by the tax payers and each states are provided with the deadline. If a person is a legal resident of the united states he can buy this ACA when the individual is not eligible for medicare, the main motto of ACA was that all the legal residents with the income of upto138% of FPL would be under the free medicaid service. The political debate happens is that the overall insurance was being covered by the population and increased the people's access to health care. There are different challenges faced by the policy makers are like to assess the individual to cover the insurance and get access to evaluate the states under federal APA is being utilised in the given period of time. Thus ACA is the good law amended as it shows an transparent access of every individual to the health care with proper quality and coverage which in many research showed a statistical improvement of population using health care. Therefore health care is the fundamental right of every citizen born in that country and the health care accessibility, cost effectiveness and quality of care should reach wide spread in the grass root level among whole of the US. But still on the other side The tenth amendment states in a different way and the federal government should take few consideration of making states participate to take up this insurance with few changes,wereby the states clauses are not been affected.
