Despite passage of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) often referred to as Obama Care, health care remains a "hot-button" issue that continues to play a prominent role in the American political landscape. It is certain that in the coming years, states and the federal government will develop new policies and reform existing ones that will affect all Americans, sick and healthy. Each person will become expert on one aspect of health care.

The goal is to learn a lot both about health care policy in the US and about how to assess social policy while working in professional teams. By the end of the class, you will develop and share a set of policy briefs. All policy briefs will be posted to courseworks and all class members will read the brief reports to prepare for the session. During the last session, you will use these briefs to develop and evaluate the quality of new policies that consider the topics listed below: Topics: Achieving universal coverage of mental health services
