Health Care Reform Overview

In March 2010, the federal government passed the Affordable Care Act (ACA), otherwise known as health care reform. The ACA has brought about changes to health insurance coverage and will bring more changes in the years to come. Below are links to other websites about health care reform and to the latest health care reform flyers and FAQs from Coventry Health Care. These communications are PDFs, which require Adobe Acrobat Reader.
