Effects of Health Care Reform
(The Affordable Care Act or "ObamaCare")
on Michigan

  • Michigan Senate Fiscal Agency Memo on ACA Medicaid Expansion Cost Savings (Steve Angelotti – 6/28/12)
    There appears to be only one major impact on the State of Michigan. Under the ACA, Medicaid will be expanded to cover all people under 133% of the FPL. In Michigan it is believed that this will lead to about 400,000 new individuals being covered, at a total cost of roughly $2.0 billion Gross. The expansion will be 100% federally funded initially, with the match rate dropping to 90% by the year 2020 and beyond.

  • ACA Appeal & Replace (MI Health & Hospital Association)
    The Trump administration and Congress continue to show interest in repealing the Affordable Care Act (ACA). While imperfect, the ACA provides coverage and access to nearly 1 million Michiganders, and the MHA does not support dismantling these programs. The MHA works closely with the American Hospital Association and others to continue providing coverage and access to high-quality and affordable care for all. This page provides tools, information and resources on ACA repeal, replacement and related topics.
