The Patient Protection & Affordable Care Act—An ObamaCare Overview & Outlook for In-House Counsel

Sweeping, well-intended, controversial and at times polarizing—President Obama’s Patient Protection & Affordable Care Act is one way of resolving the nation’s under and uninsured population. It survived a challenge that went up to the highest court in the land, while lower courts have weighed in and litigation continues. As various provisions role out, and new challenges are in the works. This complex legislation was designed to go into effect in waves, a timeline that brings new requirements for companies as well as increased risk of exposure.
