A report from the Urban Institute shows that U.S. health care spending is growing at slower rates than what originally was projected with the passage of the Affordable Care Act. The study predicts that between 2014-2019, the U.S. will spend $2.6 trillion less on health care than what was initially anticipated when the ACA was passed in 2010.
