The editorial board at The Journal for Nurse Practitioners is always working to keep the journal as interesting and useful to our readers as possible. Over the last few years, especially since the passage of health care reforms, many questions have come into the journal editor and editorial board about health policy and specifically about the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA; P.L. 111-148). As the immediate past-president of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners and owner of NP From Home, LLC, I have had a lot of experience in the health policy arena and I am honored to be the editor for this new column that has been created to answer your questions and share information about how this law is slowly changing the health care environment.
