Mathematica Policy Research conducted the Small Business Health Insurance Survey, an online and telephone survey, to
gain insight into the likely effects of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) on small businesses before some key provisions took
effect. The data provide a baseline against which health insurance offered by small businesses can be compared after these
provisions go into effect. The survey, which was conducted from November 2012 to September 2013, included Alabama,
Colorado, Minnesota, New York, and Oregon—5 of the 11 states in the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s State Health
Reform Assistance Network.
