The ACA began as a twinkle in the eye of the New Deal profits, continued as an idea of the Great Society Elites, and now is reality with the Obama and the new progressive movement. How ever you feel about the act, it is important to look at the policy, and determine the incentives it creates. Most laws and acts never accomplish the ends they intend to because they create incentives that usually change the landscape from the conditions the law was meant to exist.
In the upcoming weeks I will be examining the current conditions in the healthcare sector, what the general problems are, and what the trends look like. The next series will look at the ACA and it similarities to the Massachusetts 2006 health reform and what the effects from that reform continue to be. Finally, the analysis will look at the ACA, its expected affects, and true healthcare reform that addresses the real issues.
