Provisions in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) [PDF ebook] 

In March 2010, President Obama signed into law a comprehensive health reform bill, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), and a package of amendments to PPACA, as well as the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act (HCERA). PPACA includes numerous provisions intended to increase the primary care and public health workforce, promote preventive services and strengthen quality measurement. This new book on PPACA and HCERA focuses on the new law’s workforce, public health, health care quality and related provisions. It includes summaries of these provisions, explores some of their implications for health policy and contains an associated timeline.
