The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), is commonly called Obamacare. This is a United States Federal statute signed into law by President Barack Obama on March 23, 2010.
The law is massive and spans more than 2000 pages of obscure and legal language, not counting many other supporting documents. The law is not yet fully detailed out and many provisions are still ambiguous. Only a handful of provisions have been implemented and few are being implemented as of this writing.
This book will provide just enough information for you to understand how this plan is going to affect you, your family, your community and ultimately your country. Why not more detailed information about each and every clause, each and every provisions? Simply because they are not known neither the impact they will cause.
This is an issue where fact really doesn’t seem to matter. This is something which affects each and every one of us. The issue is really not how much it is going to cost; the issue is also not whether our Health Care will be relatively better or worse; the issue is also not whether right now is the right time to implement this. This is an ideological issue, this is a political issue, and this is an issue where it seems no one can compromise. This is an issue which needs some difficult negotiation and difficult decision making. This is an issue which can kill a politician’s career; this is an issue which can have a more profound impact than the creation of Medicare and Medicaid. This is an issue which forces us to consider the most difficult question: “How much is a human life worth?” or “How much is a few months of human life worth?”
The book “Health Reform and Obamacare” is not a book about the text in the law and speculations about their meaning. This book is about how it is impacting each of our life and how it is perceived by the general publics, doctors and health care professional and health care industry
