Progress slowing in uninsured rate and ACA impact
A CDC report based on the National Health Interview Survey shows the decline in uninsured Americans stalled in 2016, with 28.4 million uninsured through June, a minimal drop from 28.6 million in 2015. The study notes uncertainty about whether rates have plateaued as political debate continues over Obamacare. It also highlights a rise in high deductible plans, now 38.8 percent for under-65s, as employers shift costs.
