The main objective of the Act was to reform the US health systems by offering and bettering access to quality and affordable health care, health insurance, and by offering American citizens with more rights and safeguards by minimizing healthcare expenses for both the government as well as the American residents.

Many Americans agree that our health care system needs to be changed. What people do not agree on is how. With the advent of ObamaCare, healthcare reform is more important now more than ever. With the high cost of medical care due to insurance cost and pharmaceuticals, healthcare professional must learn to think outside the box to make medical care affordable to everyone and still have the doctors make a profit. With the rebirth of Healthcare Reform, the general public is talking about it, has an opinion on it and wants to know more about it.

The well-being of a population should be considered as part of public health and I feel it is the responsibility of the population’s leader to ensure well-being of a population. “The Preamble acknowledges another precondition for accomplishing WHO’s task: the responsibility of governments for the health of their people can be met only by the provision of adequate health and social measures “ (Grad, 2002, p. 982). Although measures of well-being are still being developed, the governmental leaders and officials must instill resources that the population can access to ensure their well-being. Reblin and Uchino (2008) discuss how “support can be seen as an encouragement to engage in health behaviors” (p. 203). They show that different support interventions, such as education and understanding, can influence the health behaviors and choices of people. If the government develops the proper resources for its people that will benefit their physical, mental, and social health, then the well-being of their people can be assured. Nevertheless, a leader will not know how the assure the well-being of his people if the people do not state clearly what their needs are, and separate needs from wants. Each able-bodied individual is responsible for taking initiative in life to secure their his or her needs. A person cannot just expect to have their needs met without trying first. If there are
