The study had significant limitations. The population examined was from only one state, and data collection involving in-person interviews and physical exams was limited to the Portland metropolitan area. The study looked at results over a two-year period and the limited sample size generated limitations in statistical power. The study outcomes were considered in the context of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and how the ACA may impact states'<unk>  expansion. Although the authors addressed and described the<unk>  expansion population (100% of poverty, self-selection to apply for the program lottery, etc.), they did not examine the possible differences in the expansion for the population between 100% and 138% of poverty. Also, it will be important to consider how<unk> 's<unk> care delivery system is pertinent in the context of the ACA.
