On June 17, 2021, the Supreme Court of the United States rejected another constitutional challenge to the Affordable Care Act, also known as the ACA or Obamacare. 

In this edition of HealthConnections, Dr. Carole Myers, a professor in the University of Tennessee College of Nursing, and WUOT's Claire Heddles sort-out what the ruling means for Tennesseans, take a look at Republican attempts to repeal and replace the ACA, and consider the future of the Affordable Care Act.
