Nothing sparks discussion among health professionals and consumers like the government’s role in the provision of healthcare. Depending on one’s perspective the American Health Care Act and the Affordable Care Act are the salvation or bane of our civilization. The issue is complex but can be simply analyzed as a combination of the government’s role in providing health coverage for those who cannot fully afford it (which is most of us) and how to pay for it. It is the latter that drives much of the fervor–how much of your money should be used to pay for the care of others?
Where do you stand? Take a position and defend it (appx. 250 words).

The paper should be about four pages minimum– not counting any title page, abstract, or references. You may choose to provide “a fix” for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (also known as the ACA or Obamacare), or you may propose a general replacement for the ACA.
You should likely focus on one or two broad policies (due to the short length of the paper). You may look at what others have proposed and incorporate their thoughts into your writing with appropriate attribution and citation.
Use APA 7 style for citations.
You should have at least four sections:
An Introduction – explaining what you are proposing in general terms which should include identifying the problem you are attempting to address with your fix or replacement.
Your Proposal – this is the details of your proposal – although, in 4 to 6 pages, you likely can’t be as detailed as you would like to be.
Difficulties you see in getting your proposal through the policymaking process as we have discussed it in this class and as it is outlined in the textbook.
A Conclusion – don’t just leave me hanging. Tie everything together here and tell me again why you feel your proposal is worthwhile and what the difficulties might be.
