Description

To help consumers with a wide range of private health insurance questions and complaints, the Affordable Care Act created the Consumer Assistance Program Grants (CAP). CAP Grants provide nearly 30 million dollars in new resources to help States and territories establish or strengthen consumer assistance programs. CAP Grants were awarded in October 2010 and 38 States and Territories are using these resources to empower consumers and provide direct services to answer health insurance questions. Data reported for the first year of the program (October 2010-October 2011) demonstrate the significant impact these programs have already made.
