obamacare: -includes onlien marketplace for insurance -encouraged medicaid to expand their scope to poorer -prevents higher premiums for preexisting coverage -requires coverage of essential diseases -subsidies through internte buying CONS: limited choice of providers, increased cost, individual mandate was repealed, long term cost. ince its enactment on March 23, 2010, the Affordable Care Act has led to an historic advancement of health equity in the United States. This landmark law improved the health of all Americans, including women and families, kids, older adults, people with disabilities, LGBTQI+ and communities of color. overall, I think it was a good attempt at increasing access, iw as able to see during shepherd hope and aac how hard it can be, and saw people trying to access medicare. so although ik its a complex issue and there are pros and cons, I do think it was at least a good attempt at tackling healthcare access that according to US DPT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, WAS decently successful.

so I feel as a doctor telling the absolute lies is never appropriate, but using compassionate, empathy, and reason to change how you communicate with patients is important --- HIPORCARTAIC OATH BENEFIEINCE, NONMALEFIENCE, AND INTEGIRTY. Almost all doctors tell these types of so-called "white" or benign lies, or rather, untruths. It is not done to deceive those hearing these statements, but instead to help patients and families in dark times. Although these types of "white lies" may not be strictly ethical, they are not against the law unless they cause harm to the patient or others.
