I looked through your article referenced “The Most Important Aspects of the Affordable Care Act.” I thought the piece about the pre-existing conditions was interesting. THe areticle states  “Before the Affordable Care Act, a health insurance company could charge more or deny coverage if you had a pre-existing health condition.” (healthline.com, 2017) While this is a great benefit and one that should make it through Trump’s changes to the ACA, it does not address the cost associated with obtaining the insurance. There is claim of subsidies etc to make the cost more manageable. It does not address the familes that would be charged up to $2000.00 for this coverage which most agree, is not stellar coverage. So, while this feature helps someone with say, type 1 diabetes, it does not help the person with hypertension. THe diabetic knows that they have to have treatment or they will die fairly quickly. THey will probably do anything in their power to pay for their medical care even if it requires a substantial change in lifestyle. THe person with hypertension may decide that they will save themselves the 24k per year and either pay out of pocket to see a physician and pay cask for medication or more likely, they will not treat their hypertension because there is not an immediate risk in delaying treatment. So, while this is a great feature, clearly more still needs to be done to make it more affordable and more enticing for individuals to pay into it.

Please read the case scenario listed below. In your initial post, address the questions posed at the end of the scenario. In your response post, please address information you learned about available resources in your clinic area and how you would access them. When reading your peer’s posts, what similarities and differences are noted compared to your clinical or community standards of care?

Detail your approach to care and management for the following case scenario:

A 21-year old woman presents for prenatal visit, her 1st even though she is well into her third trimester and her EDC is predicted to be within a month or so.  He boyfriend, the father of the child, has not been supportive to date of the pregnancy and is also not on good terms with her own parents.  At first, she denies alcohol or drug use but after a while, she opens up and talks about an ongoing opioid addiction.  Most of the time, she takes Percocet bought on the street but due to cost, she has recently begun using heroin.  It becomes clear that she will not be “clean” prior to her delivery and that her child will be born also affected by maternal opiate use.Since she has almost no external support, you know that after she delivers, she will be the primary caregiver of the infant and also hopefully working a detox program.

  • What is the accepted name of the condition with which the child will be born? What are the peri-natal risks to the infant? What are the post-natal risks to the infant? What are the post-natal risks to the mother?
  • Is there any evidence on the long-term risk to the child?
  • In your response post to a peer:  Please share information on the resources available in your clinical practice to address these concerns.
