Goldsmith offers a succinct and easily understandable reference for library staff to use when explaining the new health care options to their patrons. Many people only have internet access through their local libraries, so library staff are in a position to help patrons understand the Affordable Care Act. The text is divided into nine chapters, each tackling a specific aspect of the healthcare exchange, with the first chapter giving a general overview. Chapter titles include, Health Insurance and Insurance Exchange Structures, Ethics and Legal Matters Related to Health-Care Information Services, Health-Care Related Reference Interviewing, and Programming to Promote a Healthy Community: On the Ground and Online. All information in the text is up-to-date and there are several appendices, including a state by state access list. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
