| dc.description.abstract | This empirical research studies the impact that the Affordable Care Act (ACA) had on health care beneficiaries and its impact on M&A operations in USA. It analyses the law and the results reached, attempting to answer the strategic question: “Did the Obamacare could have an influence on M&A activities?” The research based on secondary data shows an improvement in affordability and availability of insurance coverage, and a reduction of uninsured people, as well as concludes that ACA might influence M&A activities both on a quantitative way, by increasing the number of deals, as well as on a qualitative way, by increasing complexity of deals in aspects related to the due diligence process. | pt_PT |
