Private Healthcare Exchanges Conference

The Private Healthcare Exchanges conference July 16-17 in Chicago will focus on how the Affordable Care Act is changing the way insurers sell health insurance.

International Global Health Conference

The theme of this year's conference, put on by the Global Health Council, is "Community Health: Delivering, Engaging, Serving, Leading." Experts in the development of new products and medicines, as well as implementers and leaders from communities themselves, will present best practices, examine challenges and opportunities, and discuss the policy hurdles to ensuring that community health is supported.

Overcoming the hurdles: How to write accurate medical stories on deadline

AHCJ's Chicago chapter presents this session in which attendees will learn how to address the challenges of writing accurate, balanced and complete stories on deadline despite biased sources and commercial pressures in the medical industry. The speakers will use real stories as examples to show how it doesn't take an extra thousand words of type or 10 minutes of air to write a solid medical story.
