III.  Legislative section:                                                                                                                  4 pages
                            1. Legislative background of problem

                            3. Anticipated impact if implemented (or worsened problem if not)
IV.  Conclusion: Tie together points made about issue, & refer to implications beyond  half-1 page 
V.  References:10 2015-2020 academic, professional, & legislative refs          beyond text pages

Do not get carried away into tangential things while writing the text.  Stick to a strict structure, & follow your outline carefully, so that you do not waste time & effort on general, vague  statements, extraneous opinions, & emotional declarations you would have to cut in order for the paper to follow this sequence to be logical & clear to policymakers.

Do not string together a series of direct quotes instead of formulating your own policy perspective.  But do cite ideas & facts evincing scientific/medical/public health & legislative/policy evidence for the urgency of a policy intervention.

Tone:  This paper must have a solid medical professional/public health understanding, used to inform policymakers of an urgent problem, the insufficient ways it was already partially dealt with through legislation, regulations, & policies.  Most importantly, you have a fresh policy plan to solve it!

Please discuss the actual legislation of relevant policy info, now that you have a better understanding of how the US health care system & governmental policymaking works!

WRITE A TITLE FOCUSSED UPON YOUR POLICY INTERVENTION FOR THIS PROBLEM, NOT MERELY A TITLE or STUDY ABOUT THE PROBLEM.
