Dr. John E. McDonough, DPH, a health policy expert who served as an advisor to the late Senator Edward Kennedy, provides a vivid picture of the intense effort required to bring this legislation into law. McDonough clearly explains the ACA's inner workings, revealing the rich landscape of the issues, policies, and controversies embedded in the law yet unknown to most Americans. In his account of these historic events, McDonough takes us through the process from the 2008 presidential campaign to the moment in 2010 when President Obama signed the bill into law. At a time when the nation is taking a second look at the ACA, Inside National Health Reform provides the essential information for Americans to make informed judgments about this landmark law. 410 0$aCalifornia/Milbank books on health and the public ;$v22. 606 $aHealth care reform$zUnited States 610 $aaca. 610 $aaffordable care act. 610 $aamerica. 610 $aamerican legislation. 610 $aamerican politics. 610 $aamericans. 610 $acivic. 610 $aeconomics healthcare. 610 $ahealth care law. 610 $ahealth care politics. 610 $ahealth care reform. 610 $ahealth policy. 610 $ahuman condition. 610 $alandmark laws. 610 $amedical history. 610 $amedicine. 610 $amodern historians. 610 $anational health care. 610 $anational policy. 610 $anonfiction guide. 610 $apolicy experts. 610 $apolitical campaigns. 610 $apolitical science. 610 $apolitical. 610 $apublic health. 610 $asocial history. 610 $aunited states. 610 $aus health care. 615 0$aHealth care reform 676 $a362.1/0425 700 $aMcDonough$b John E$g(John Edward)$01476803 712 02$aMilbank Memorial Fund. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781207403321 996 $aInside national health reform$93691586 997 $aUNINA
