Purpose:
The purpose of this assignment is to develop a coherent position regarding the development of the U.S. healthcare system.
Prompt:
Discuss the historical development of the U.S. healthcare system and how this led to the development of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Identify the pros and cons of the ACA, analyzing not only the legislation but what effects it has had on the healthcare industry. Be sure to support all of your information with scholarly references such as the textbook and peer-reviewed literature. After discussing the pros and cons, select a position to support or not support the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and defend your position. Describe in detail how you will use this information in your future career.

Tips:
Your paper should be 4-5 pages in length. The title page and references page are not included in the page limit. You do not need to write an abstract. Please be sure that the style of writing is fitting for a scholarly research paper (no first person or narrative styles and no anecdotal evidence). Also be sure that you are using APA 7th edition formatting to avoid losing points that are not related to your presentation of reasoning and academic content.
