• Affordable Care Act. On March 23, 2010, President
  Obama signed comprehensive health reform, known
  as the Patient Protection and Affordable Care
  Act, into law. The primary purpose of the health
  reform is to improve the nations health. As we
  have read, access to preventative care is shown
  to improve the overall morbidity and mortality of
  a population.

• Science versus Social Policy. According to
  Turnock (2012), further gains in health status
  may be less related to science than to social
  policies (p. 266). Do you agree or disagree with
  this statement? Why or why not? Provide at least
  three specific reasons to support your position.
