Assignment: Patient Protection And Affordable Care Act
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) was passed into law in 2010 as part of an ongoing effort to reform healthcare at the national level. However, there have been policymakers who wanted to repeal the law, citing increases in taxes, penalties for those who do not have insurance coverage, and considerable decreases in employer-group enrollments. Other policymakers have argued that a full repeal is unnecessary and that only parts of the law need revising. As a healthcare executive, you have a vested interest in the future of healthcare reform.
You will select a subject that has been proposed for replacement in the PPACA. You will then draft a letter to a senator or congressperson from your district or to someone serving on the Subcommittee for Healthcare, recommending changes to the particular portion of the PPACA that you selected.
Length: between 3-5 pages (not including reference page). It should be in letter format, with the appropriate honorific for the U.S. senator or representative.
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
