Compilation Of Patient Protection And Affordable Care Act; Part B Office of the Legislative Counsel

Compilation Of Patient Protection And Affordable Care Act [As Amended Through May 1, 2010]; Part B Office of the Legislative Counsel The healthcare legislation passed in 2010 was passed in two bills which included the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and the modifications that were passed as a compromise bill. After the ACA was modified, the legal staff of the US House of Representatives put together a document that combines the parts of the bill that relate to healthcare. This is the second volume of a two volume set. This document is of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (''PPACA''; Public Law 111-148) consolidating the amendments made by title X of the Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (''HCERA''; Public Law 111-152). The text of the Indian Health Care Improvement Reauthorization and Extension Act of 2009 (S. 1790), as enacted (in amended form) by section 10221 of PPACA, is shown in a separate, accompanying document. This document was prepared by the attorneys and staff of the House Office of the Legislative Counsel (HOLC) for the use of its attorneys and clients. It is not an official document of the House of Representatives or its committees and may not be cited as ''the law''. At the request of the Leadership, it is being made available to the public through Congressional websites and may be downloaded from them
