Short Abstract
The impassioned debate over the passage and implementation of the 2010 Affordable Care Act has made it difficult to find unbiased and objective information on health insurance policy. How did we get to this point as a society? This poster will document the history of health insurance in the United States with a particular emphasis on how important events influenced consumer behavior, access, and choice.
