Abstract

Some code on ACA

Read [this paper](http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMsa1202099), particularly the model in Table 2.

Get the data to estimate mortality changes.

Table 2 gives mortality rates for different subgroups. We'll consider the poverty measure and race measure separately.

## Assumptions

1. All demographic factors not explicitly controlled for are assumed to be the same
