Abstract: We study the heterogeneous impacts of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) across households, firms and local labor markets. We develop and estimate a competitive labor market equilibrium model, with rich heterogeneities across local markets, workers and firms. We estimate the model via indirect inference, exploring variations in the policy environments across markets and across policy eras (before/after ACA). We use the estimated model to study the counterfactual changes in various components of the ACA.
