Daniel,

Overall, I think your edits have improved the quality of the article and made the article more complete. I think you did well to accomplish your goals for this module. Here are some of my thoughts on what you did well and things that could be improved:

Strengths:

- Articles are relevant and seemed to be from reputable non-biased sources.

- Citations working and support claims of the article.

- Very detailed with lots of information backing up each section

- Updated information

Weakness:

- Viewpoints talking about strengths of ACA heavily overrepresented. Wording some what biased in favor of ACA. (ex. Importantly, issues with cost-related unmet medical needs, skipped medications, paying medical bills, and annual out-of-pocket spending have been significantly reduced among low-income adults in Medicaid expansion states compared to non-expansion states.) While I agree these things are important, it's not biased. I'm not sure if you're saying the impact of the ACA was significant or the reduction was statistically significant. If the former, it's another example of bias.

- Some things in the Medicare expansion might be more appropriate under health outcome, but it's really up to you because I can also see why you might choose to put it there (ex. “ Importantly, uninsured PLWH were 40% more likely to die in the hospital than insured PLWH.”)

- Lots of detail, but might be too specific specifically with the numbers? This is up to you but I thought having the exact number for the statistics for each health outcome made the article a bit hard to read. I feel like most reader are just every day people and does not benefit from knowing the specific number. Something you can do is maybe put it in the chart format. But, this is really just me nitpicking so do what you think is best.
