One major benefit is that there is a lot less information that one would need because they have no children. They may even get accepted faster just on the basis that there is less information that needs verified and scrutinized. In the small community that I live in, if you are a childless, incomeless adult that applies for health care you will almost be guaranteed to get free health care. Most of the people that are in this boat don’t even apply though. The Affordable Health Care Act was made to help people that need health care but couldn’t get it before. It has expanded a lot since it was first heard of to help out the “vulnerable community” in many states. “The effects of Medicaid expansions on this population’s health service use will likely vary according to health status, prior attachment to the health care system, and health care market characteristics (Burns, 2014).” So it seems that there is the extra help out there it is just a matter of people feeling that it is important enough to apply for
