The rest comes from increased Medicaid coverage, due primarily to the ACA’s Medicaid expansion to low-income adults but also to ACA policies making it easier for eligible people to enroll in Medicaid. Coverage gains have been...

The ACA changed the rules in ways that make the resulting dynamics paradoxical and issuer incentives hazardous. I was recently asked to discuss these paradoxes in a Society of Actuaries...
