Although the Affordable Care Act was signed into law in 2010, many key provisions, including Medicaid expansion and health insurance exchange marketplaces, are only now going into effect.

Hear from leading health reporters on how the overhaul will affect patients, hospitals and physicians, small businesses, and insurance companies and how to cover the nuances of health reform.
