SUMMARY:Private Healthcare Exchanges Conference
DESCRIPTION: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. Instead of marketing almost exclusively to employers\, the ACA has forced insurers to focus on enrolling consumers. The conference is sponsored by Employee Benefit News.

SUMMARY:AHCJ-CDC Health Journalism Fellowship
DESCRIPTION:♦ Need inspiration?   ♦ Story ideas?   ♦ How about new sources?   ♦ What if you could visit labs and watch researchers tackle the latest public health issues?\nThat's what  AHCJ-CDC Health Journalism Fellows get … for free:  \n"This  was a great  opportunity to access the most up-to-date information   about some of the biggest  health issues I cover. We learned a month’s   worth of information in only four  days."   – Kate Daily\, Newsweek  \n"You    must offer this fellowship program again! I wish every member of  the    AHCJ could attend. There's no question that it's an experience  that  will   improve my reporting. These briefings really pulled back the   curtain on   many of the CDC's activities. I have enough story ideas to   keep me busy   for years!"   – Lorna Benson\, Minnesota Public Radio  \n\nMarshall Allen (right)\, a Las Vegas Sun  reporter\, speaks to Grant Baldwin\, Ph.D.\, director of the CDC’s Injury  Center\, about interpreting child safety data for localizing stories\,  during the 2008 fellowship. \n \nAbout the fellowships\nAHCJ has teamed up with the  Centers for   Disease Control and Prevention  – with the support of the  CDC Foundation   – for this national fellowship program for journalists.  Ten fellows will be  chosen to spend a week studying public health  issues at   two CDC campuses. The AHCJ-CDC Health Journalism Fellows  will:  \n\nattend   sessions on epidemiology\, global disease  prevention efforts\, pandemic   flu preparedness\, climate change\, vaccine  safety\, obesity\, autism and   more\ntour the CDC director's  National Emergency Operations Center\nmeet new sources on policy and  research\nlearn how to tap the agency's abundant resources to  produce better stories\n\nThe    competitive fellowships are open to professional journalists working  in   the United States. The fellowships include  membership\, travel\,  lodging   and meals. The fellowship dates are Dec. 4-8\, 2011.  \nApplications will be due in October.\nStill not convinced? Here's more from former fellows:\n"As  a magazine freelancer\, I was brimming with story ideas   after  leaving  the fellowship\, and I soon put that information to use in    articles  for Good Housekeeping\, Reader's Digest\, More\, Parenting and other publications." That's what fellow Meryl Davids Landau\, a freelance writer based in Florida\, said about the fellowship. In "Eight months later\, freelancer still generating story ideas from fellowship\,"   she  writes about meeting top officials at the CDC\, briefings from   experts on health issues from  genomics   to infectious diseases to   child safety and more. She says they learned about navigating databases   such as the Behavioral Risk Factor  Surveillance Survey and CDC   publications.  \nAnd if you've  ever wanted to tell the CDC what to   do\, be inspired by fellow JoNel  Aleccia  who suggested  they send  media  their tentative Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report lineup the  day  before publication\, something that was implemented and is still in   practice. \nThe Las Vegas Sun's Marshall Allen\, who was a member of first class of AHCJ-CDC Health Journalism Fellows\, learned that avian flu was still a danger. Elizabeth Fernandez of the San Francisco Chronicle wrote about the CDC's efforts to uncover what causes autism. Modern Healthcare’s Jessica Zigmond wrote about the enthusiasm she encountered among public health experts at the CDC.    She says it allowed her to find an expert who   “not only had great    interest in his work\, but who also seemed genuinely   interested in    sharing that information with a group of 11 journalists\,   all of whom    had different backgrounds\, interests and goals.” \n"Great idea and   execution from AHCJ. Thoughtful and balanced approach. A unique  experience that  I can’t get anywhere else. A classroom and time on the  beat can’t give this  combination of education and up-close interview  access. I got a mix of quick  hit news\, light feature\, in-depth  weekender and investigation. I have about  eight concrete ideas I can  definitely use."– Mary Shedden\, The Tampa  Tribune \n"Overall\, a very  informative\, helpful program that aided my knowledge and understanding of  public health coverage."   – Ginger Rough\, The Arizona  Republic \n"It's  been a great opportunity to connect with sources and hear about    issues that fly under the radar. It will significantly improve my    understanding and coverage of CDC-related health issues. Great access to    top level sources. This conference provided that personal connection    that can make the difference in timely\, relevant response."   – JoNel Aleccia\, health writer\, MSNBC.com
