Does Joe Biden's presidency change the future of the Affordable Care Act?

from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy

In an early move on the healthcare front, the Biden administration recently opened a special enrollment period for people to sign up for the Affordable Care Act. So what does that mean, and how big of a deal is it? The Affordable Care Act was stress tested by a pandemic and a presidential administration that actively worked to dismantle it -- so what is the current state of the healthcare law? What could we see from the Biden administration to strengthen it? Dr. Katherine Hempstead, Senior Policy Adviser at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation joins KYW Newsradio In Depth to talk about how the ACA has weathered the last four years and what's next for healthcare in America.
