New applicants for the Health Marketplace will be able to submit applications beginning November 15. Over 20 million Americans have gained coverage since enactment of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in 2010. Latinos have been one of the groups that have benefited the most.
Latinos, according to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), have been one of the groups that have benefited the most from the ACA. Since it was passed in 2010, over 9 million Latinos have obtained health insurance coverage.
