Robert Wood Johnson Foundation researchers set out to find if the ACA had a negative or positive impact on employment rates in recent years.
Here are four takeaways:
1. Actual and expected employment rates both hit 71.8 percent in 2016. Therefore, researchers concluded the ACA did not impact overall employment last year.
2. Part-time work rates have dropped since 2013, but not as quickly as estimates projected.
3. The 2016 part-time employment rate was 6 percent higher than estimates anticipated.
4. The study concluded the ACA had "little to no adverse effects of employment through 2016, while increasing health insurance coverage for 20 million Americans."
