Eight Questions That Will Decide Whether Obamacare Is A Success


"Is there a reduction in the total number of uninsured? Is there an increase or stabilization in the cost of premiums on the exchanges and in the private market? Is there an adequate number of plans in the exchange and does the number increase or decrease over time? Are plans exiting or entering the market over time? Does the number of people who pay the penalty for not having insurance increase or decrease over time? Is there a decline in employer coverage? Is there a decline in full time-work and an increase in part-time work? What is the extent of the conflict between federal and state oversight of health insurance and does it increase or decrease over time? Is there evidence of an increase or a decrease in out-of-pocket expenditures on health care?" Ezra Klein in The Washington Post
