Linea Abierta - English Description - Show in Spanish show

Summary: HEALTH REFORM: REACHING PATIENTS OF COLOR. The Affordable Care Act’s health insurance marketplaces are set to be launched in less than six months. And three years after the reform was signed into law, a vast majority of Latinos still support it, though a majority of the overall population still don't know what the law is about. What do policymakers need to do to successfully engage and enroll uninsured people, particularly in communities of color? What are the details of the law that the uninsured need to understand?
