High court ruling offers chance to alter health law debate.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The country finally has an opportunity to change the subject on health care, after the Supreme Court again upheld President Barack Obama's law.
There's no shortage of pressing issues, including prescription drug prices, high insurance deductibles and long-term care.
But moving on will take time, partly because many Republicans want another chance to repeal the Affordable Care Act if they win the White House and both chambers of Congress next year.
Also, it's difficult to start new conversations when political divisions are so raw, and there's a big disconnect between what people perceive as problems and the priorities of policymakers, business and the health care industry.
Democrats say a change in focus is long overdue.
