HCA320 Discussion Mod 2: Overview This module examines the history of healthcare reform including the Patient Protection Affordable Care Act (PPACA or ACA). Changes in healthcare policies can impact healthcare consumers both positively and negatively. For example, under the ACA children can obtain coverage through their parents’ employer-sponsored or privately purchased insurance plan through the age of 26 (Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation [KFF], 2018). According to KFF, since this provision of the bill came into effect in 2013, the rate of uninsured nonelderly adults dropped from 20.5% to 12.2% in 2016 and even with all the progress, young people remain the least insured age group in the United States. Healthcare reform affects the consumer as well as the provider and healthcare worker. In this module, you will examine populations affected by the ACA, and the transition from traditional healthcare to one with a strong governmental influence. You will have the opportunity to compare and contrast traditional healthcare in the United States with the ACA, as well as explore changes in the current policies that impact health care in the United States.
