The assignment is PROPOSAL, is a very short document ( no more than tow pages), describing a policy issue currently under consideration by the USA federal, state, or local government. It must be of manageable size, and current. Huge changes in law ( such as the creation of Medicare Parte D or the full implementation of the PPACA health care reform act) are too overwhelming for this task.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The policy should be related to health field in United States.
