The Affordable Care Act provides new health insurance coverage options and incentives for small business owners, employees, and their families. With high rates of both small business ownership and uninsurance, these options will be particularly helpful for the Asian American (AA) and Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (NHPI) community.
