As many as 35,000 uninsured Delawareans could take advantage of the state’s new health insurance exchange. Established by the Affordable Care Act, the exchange functions as an online marketplace, allowing state residents to compare health insurance policies and find affordable coverage.

Like most laws, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also known as the health care law, is complex. Who could forget all the talk about this over 900-page document?

How the law works for you is based on who you are, where you live, and what your health status and health coverage is.
