Comment Period of Solicitation

By Staff Reporters

Last week marked the first anniversary of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) being signed into law by President Obama, and one year into the new era of health care reform it’s clear that Americans remain divided in their views on the ACA.

Depending on the source, polls show the public remains confused about many aspects of the law, with mixed support for several provisions and strong opposition to the individual mandate and other parts of the ACA.

Legal Challenges

With several lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the ACA, governors and state legislators vowing to refuse funding to implement certain ACA programs, and Congress poised to revise or repeal some or all of the law, opponents of the ACA are hopeful that they will have the chance to go back to the drawing board to craft reform legislation more to their liking.

Supporters

Meanwhile, supporters are pointing to widespread public approval of many of the insurance reforms in the law and claiming that once the health exchanges and other major components of the ACA take effect, public support will continue to grow.

The ME-P Wants to Know:

• Has your support for the ACA changed at all in the year since it was signed into law?
• Are you pleased with the outcomes to date of the Affordable Care Act?
• Will the major provisions that have not yet been implemented be able to fulfill the stated goal of covering more patients while reducing overall health care costs?
• If you are not a supporter of this law, which sections are in most need of revision? Or are you in favor of complete repeal of this law?
• If you prefer repeal, what alternative approach to health care reform do you favor?
