From the book reviews: "This book discusses the changes in geriatric healthcare in light of the Affordable Care Act. While the Affordable Care Act makes significant changes in all of U.S. medicine, this book focuses primarily on the geriatric aspects and those whose practice involves caring for older patients. The audience includes many groups of readers: geriatricians, primary care providers, policy makers, insurance actuaries, and the lay population who may have an interest in either the Affordable Care Act or geriatric issues."
