United States of America. The decision now permits Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals recipients to enroll in a qualified health plan through the Health Insurance Marketplace in all states, including the 19 involved in the lawsuit. CMS said it would notify consumers if future court decisions impact their coverage.
