To commemorate National Women’s Health Week, please read Secretary Kathleen Sebelius’ article that describes how Health Reform Will Do Wonders for Women and their families by protecting their right to coverage and making it easier to receive preventative care. The Affordable Care Act will no longer allow women to be denied health care coverage simply for being women. Before the act was passed, women could be denied coverage because of a breast cancer diagnosis or for being a victim of domestic violence.
