The Biden administration has made bolstering the ACA, especially in improving coverage for historically underserved populations, the foundation of its healthcare agenda.
Spurred by subsidies and special enrollment periods, a record 14.5 million Americans signed up for health insurance through the ACA exchanges for 2022 — the highest volume since the law was signed 12 years ago. That included 6 million consumers who were new to the exchanges, the Biden administration said.
President Joe Biden’s administration granted $80 million to navigators last year, renewing investment in a program that had been slashed by the Trump administration. In its last year, the Obama administration granted $63 million to navigators.
