Pick one State from the CMS list of Essential Health Benefits Benchmark Plans for all of the States. http://www.cms.gov/CCIIO/Resources/Data-Resources/ehb.html (Links to an external site.)
To be more meaningful to you, you may pick your own State, and answer the following, using a comparison chart or a spreadsheet (if that helps you):
1. Which plan did your State pick?
2. What Essential Health Benefits are covered by your State?
3. What types of health benefits are not covered?
4. Do the plan features conform with the requirements of the Affordable Care Act? Refer to the spreadsheet developed by CMS to analyze your plan:
4. In your opinion, have the major goals of the Affordable Care Act been met by the plan adopted by your State? Why or why not?
