With the help of local focus groups, the investigators are designing and testing a website to help urban people have better access to health care through understanding their insurance options better. They hypothesize that once individuals engage with the website and go through all of its modules, they will: 1) become more informed consumers of the ACA and its health insurance options; 2) enroll in an insurance plan; and 3) better leverage the benefits of their existing plans."
