Providing a single-payer system of health insurance was not a goal of the Health Care Act of 2010.

Answer: Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

A single-payer system is a health insurance model that provides health care coverage to the people who are in need, in turn, all people can have essential care for the entire lifetime. But the US doesn't have this system till the date.

Meanwhile, in 2010, President Obama has announced a health reform act called the Affordable Care Act that also popularly known as Obamacare. He reformed the private insurance system to work as same as the government's health insurance system.

Also, this law includes providing coverage for people with already existing medical conditions (asthma, cancer, etc). They will be covered just by signing the new health care act. Also, it improved the coverage for prescription drugs provided by Medicare( a health insurance company).
