Affordable Care Act

One of the key challenges facing the Obama administration is the implementation of the health exchanges under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). In some instances, the state is taking on the task, while in others the state is defaulting to the federal government. Think about why health care exchanges are being established and write a short essay addressing the following questions:
•What is their purpose? Will they be successful?
•How does the expansion of the government into health care under the Affordable Care Act change the nature of government in the United States, if at all?

•Is the ACA different from other government health programs like Medicare and
Medicaid? How?
