Also it improves efficiency and effectiveness of the American health care system. It will combat waste, fraud, and abuse in both health insurance and the delivery of health care overall so everyone is treated fairly. The requirements that will help our organization are:

* Title I; Health Care Access, Portability, and Renewability * Title II; Preventing Health Care Fraud and Abuse, Administrative, Simplification, and Medical Liability Reform. * Title III; Tax-Related Health Provisions * Title IV; Application and Enforcement of Group Health Plan Requirements * Title V; Revenue Offsets
