Publisher's Synopsis
In March 2010, the 111th Congress passed health reform legislation, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Jointly referred to as the PPACA, the law increases access to health insurance coverage, expands federal private health insurance market requirements, and requires the creation of health insurance exchanges to provide individuals and small employers with access to insurance. This book provides an overview of major PPACA provisions, implementation and oversight activities, and current legal challenges.
