Health Care Reform: An Overview of the New Legislation

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act became law in March but how many people really know how their health care coverage will be affected, and as a health care provider can you provide answers to questions patients might have? Did you know the plan will greatly expand Medicaid, while cutting from the Medicare program? The law also requires all Americans and legal citizens to have health insurance and will penalize those who are not covered. Program faculty will take an in-depth look at the $870 billion dollar plan and discuss the changes it will have on health care coverage.
