    Although, PPACA provides healthcare to everyone, in order to get money to insure all of these people, new taxes were created. The people who suffer the most are the ones that barley miss the Federal Poverty Level and can hardly afford the cost of living, much less having to pay for healthcare.

    A Supreme Court justice, with the abundant resources of a full-time staff challenged with researching the cases they are handling, would have much more quality information about the PPACA than the average American citizen. They are able to have their staffs look up all of the relevant information regarding health care, previous rulings, who would be affected, and how it ties into the Constitution. Being educated individuals, working in Washington, the staff members have the experience and political knowledge to know biased and unbiased information. Also, the information that the Supreme Court justice receives would likely come from a very reliable source versus the American public that often times receives and retains information from a biased source. The most important information pertaining to the Supreme Court justice would whether or not the law contradicts the Constitution, as compared to the average American citizen only looking out for one’s self and the interest of their particular party.

    Because of reviewing the “Political Irony” and comparing the lesson it made me review and question several factors in the PPACA legislation what and how does this legislation offer Americans? As I view health care where it stands today, where it has mitigated from in the past decade it baffles my mind. It was in the 1960’s, when Lyndon B. Johnson brought about the first change for Americans health care to a system that required help. Medicare was implemented under Title XVIII of the Social Security Act to provide health insurance to people age 65 and older, regardless of income or medical history due to its price and its unaffordability by people over the age of 65. In that same year under the Social Security Amendments of 1965 Medicaid

  • Health Care Choice Act Pros And Cons

    150 Words  | 1 Pages

    The Health Care Choice Act of 2017 (HCCA) is legislation designed to modify US policy related to the federal approach to health care. HCCA is designed to repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) and some provisions of the Healthcare and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010. HCCA also addresses the Public Health Service Act (PHCA) to support interstate healthcare coverage where a health insurer can insure from one state to an individual in another, and that the laws of the health insurer’s state are the laws which apply. The law exempts insurers from the laws of the secondary state (the state of an insured, if they live in another state than the insurer) (“H.R. 314”, 2017). The primary state has jurisdiction to regulate

    On the other hand, supporters show through statistics that Medicaid, with the latest addition of Obamacare, has benefited up to 17 million Americans since 2013. The big improvement allowed many people to be insured under the health care umbrella, they argue. Furthermore, ACA has drastically reduced the amount of people without health insurance in half a century. Despite the growth of people insured with Obamacare, the latest study by Moody’s Investors Service claims that nonprofit hospitals under this expanded Medicaid are unsatisfied with the results thus far. Instead of a result of reduced debt and monetary progress at hospitals, they face unpaid bills, and Americans paying out of their own pockets, the study says.

  • Universal Health Care Argumentative Essay

    Health care should not be considered a political argument in America; it is a matter of basic human rights. Something that many people seem to forget is that the US is the only industrialized western nation that lacks a universal health care system. The National Health Care Disparities Report, as well as author and health care worker Nicholas Conley and Physicians for a National Health Program (PNHP), strongly suggest that the US needs a universal health care system. The most secure solution for many problems in America, such as wasted spending on a flawed non-universal health care system and 46.8 million Americans being uninsured, is to organize a national health care program in the US that covers all citizens for medical necessities.

    Many Americans were led to believe that the introduction of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act in 2009 would put an end to disparities in health care access. While it did improve the situation for a small percentage of the population there are still many Americans who lack access to good quality health care. Health care access in America is determined by money and those in lower socioeconomic groups frequently tend to miss out on adequate care. In a recent health care report by the national health research foundation Kaiser Family Foundation, it was noted “health care disparities remain a persistent problem in the United States, leading to certain groups being at higher risk of being uninsured, having limited access to care, and experiencing poorer quality of care” (Kaiser Family Foundation). The current health care

    The case study presents many failures of public administration. Among these are bureaucracy, communication failures, recruitment of unskilled officials, overlap of power between agencies, negligence and corruption. The bureaucratization and hierarchization of the government agencies linked in the case slowed down the processes and compliance with the norm. The flow of letters and reports between agencies took a long time to scale the case to agencies with superior power. It is important to highlight that, thanks to the action of the inspector and the group of workers, the case reached high-ranking agencies, but middle-ranking officials.
