Health Care Reform Resource Center
In March 2010, U.S. President Barack Obama signed into law the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, the largest overhaul of the health care system in our nation's history. Health care reform lowers the cost of health care, increases the number of health care providers, holds health insurance companies accountable, improves the quality of health care and extends health coverage to 32 million people. In this time of economic uncertainty and rising unemployment, health care reform provides much needed security to millions of Americans.
