In this study for the Peter G. Peterson Foundation, we estimate the impact of The American Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009 (H.R. 3200) (Act) as amended by the Energy and Commerce (E&C) Committee in August of 2009. We provide estimates of the program’s impact on coverage and spending for the federal government, state and local governments, private employers and consumers. To demonstrate the long-term impact of the Act, we provide estimates for a 20-year period from 2010 through 2029.
