The percentage of uninsured Americans has fallen from 13.9 percent to 10.2 percent since Obamacare coverage took effect, according to new data from the Urban Institute.
The difference is even more pronounced in states that expanded Medicaid under the law. In those states, the uninsured rate dropped from 12.6 percent to 8.4 percent from the second quarter of 2013 to the third quarter of 2014.
In states that didn’t expand Medicaid, the uninsured rate still fell but not quite as significantly: 16.3 percent to 12.5 percent.
Let us hope so since more are getting insured every enrollment period but that won’t stop the GOP for voting another 50 times this year to repeal it

Beat me to it. Its all to the good these percentages, ergo we will never hear about it on the news as a direct result of implementing the PPACA in this country. Our so called “liberal media” can’t bring themselves to cover these kinds of details, let alone explain the fucking law in the first place for the public.
That many more people who ought to pretty angry if SCOTUS guts it. They ought to be Democrats by now.
Why did the rate of uninsured in medicaid expansion states go up in the last quarter? Temporary glitch? Change in rules? Bad weather?
