The Affordable Care Act – comparison ( Create a Matrix)

Create a matrix to share with one of your relatives on the components of the Affordable Care Act so they understand what is included. In addition, include what they might expect to pay in terms of premiums. Consider coverage for one adult only and then consider coverage for a family of three, adult and two children under 12 years old. Your relative lives in New York State and makes approximately $65000 per year. They are considering moving from Brooklyn to Rockland County. How does this affect the premiums that would be paid for this coverage? Include as many details as would be helpful for your relative.
