Here's an interesting tidbit:

"Obamacare Has Reversed A Negative Trend. Researchers Call It 'Remarkable."

  "For the first time in a decade, the number of people struggling to pay their
medical bills has started to decline, according to a new survey released on
Thursday by the Commonwealth Fund. The researchers attributed the historic drop
to the number of people gaining insurance under the health care reform law.

Between 2012 and 2014 -- as Obamacare's main coverage expansion took effect --
the Commonwealth researchers found that the number of people who had issues
paying for health treatment dropped from 41 percent to 35 percent. Over the
same time period, the people who skipped out on health services because they
couldn't afford them declined from 43 percent to 36 percent.."
