DOC2 Obamacare: Saving People Money?

Ok, I have to admit that I didn't expect that our next topic for our DOC2 project paper would be on such a contraversial topic.
What is it?  according  to useconomy.ask.com .. Affordable Care Act contains many provisions that aren't as well known. For example, it created the National Prevention Council that coordinates all Federal health efforts to  cut down on fraudulent doctor/supplier relationships. It also requires background checks of all nursing home nursesn and staff to prevent seniors abuse.
It also means Helath Insurance companies have to be accountable to you, if they spend too much money on overhead and not enough on medical care, you get a rebate.  As with 8 million Americans this past summer already did.
Ok, I really thought this was boring at first but it really is interesting to know  how this plan affects the nation.   The project requires us to write the pros and cons and why we think it is good or bad...right?
Oh well, Ill keep you posted as the week progresses.   I'll go see what my other class mates write about it.   Happy Obamacare Trails!

  1. Helen, this ObamaCare is a huge dilemma but I feel the Americans looking at it the wrong way, of course people are greedy so they look at it as more money to waste. In actuality it helpful especially for people without insurance to start being more responsible for themselves. It is putting a stop to a lot of fraud cases and insurance issues.
