Secure Health Care for All
The 2010 federal Affordable Care Act puts America on the path to quality and affordable health care for all. Yet the new law is facing legal and political challenges from opponents and there are ways in which it can be improved. The NPA is actively working to ensure that the new protections and coverage expansions secured through this law are fully implemented. Physicians are uniquely positioned to bring the vision for reform firmly into reality, with patient-centered, substantive, positive change.
