The Affordable Care Act by https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn en-us 2016-06-20 03:09:02 UTC 2025-10-04 16:48:21 UTC hello@padlet.com The Affordable Care Act was passed for everyone in the United States so they could get affordalbe health care. jalensimmons78 https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115012476 2016-06-20 03:11:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115012476 One of the main components I like was passed in 2010 and states "That it will eliminate lifetime and unreasonable annual limits on benefits."     jalensimmons78 https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115012558 2016-06-20 03:13:11 UTC https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115012558 One of the reasons I like this component is, it makes it fair for everyone. People can go to the doctor and get check ups. Before The Affordable Care Act was passed not every one could do that. jalensimmons78 https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115012751 2016-06-20 03:16:43 UTC https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115012751 Another reason is obesity will start to decrease. If every family in America goes to the doctor they will learn about eating right, exercise, and diets.   jalensimmons78 https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115012975 2016-06-20 03:19:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115012975 One last thing I really like about the act is more patients can be looked at and stop diseases. Everyday people get sick so if the doctors look at more patients they can stop a potential epidemic.  jalensimmons78 https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115013200 2016-06-20 03:24:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115013200 One potential risk is it rises taxes. The money the government used to pass this act was already coming from tax payers so it rised them a lot more. jalensimmons78 https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115013484 2016-06-20 03:29:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115013484 Another down side is longer medical lines at doctor offices or hospitals. The longer you wait the more tired you get or the sicker you get.  jalensimmons78 https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115013562 2016-06-20 03:31:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115013562 And the last down side is how long the changes will take place. Starting in 2014 the majority of the stuff will be passed or starting to be passed . I wished all of the changes would happen around the same time . jalensimmons78 https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115013616 2016-06-20 03:33:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jalensimmons78/qoq2f56agnjn/wish/115013616
