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:Philadelphia Chapter — State health law implementation: Race to the starting line
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Philadelphia chapter of the Association of Health Care Journalists on Tuesday\, June 18 for a special event to explore the challenges that Pennsylvania and New Jersey face this year leading up to the 2014 health law changes. \nDate: June 18 \nTime: 6 p.m. beer/wine and appetizers\, 6:30-8 p.m. briefing  \nLocation: Philadelphia Inquirer Public Room (801 Market St. #300). Parking is across the street\, at 8th and Market. \nThis year the giant health law begins to move into its most climactic phase. Tens of millions of people are about to get health insurance\, and this meeting will help reporters understand the epic challenges ahead. The health law requires that everyone carry insurance by 2014\, and new\, online exchanges are meant to help individuals and small businesses obtain coverage. About half of states – including Pennsylvania and New Jersey – are leaving the creation and operation of the exchanges to the federal government. Insurers have begun to submit plan types and proposed premiums to federal regulators\, and details are expected to be publicly announced by August. Enrollment is planned to start in October with the first plans going live in January\, 2014.  \nYet another big change is the expansion of Medicaid\, which states can accept or reject. New Jersey has chosen to expand its program\, while Pennsylvania will not.  \nThese developments mark the biggest changes in health insurance in more than a generation and will raise many questions. How will federal insurance exchanges work? Will they even get off the ground by the Oct. 1 deadline? Will people know how to enroll? Will the plans be affordable? Without the Medicaid expansion\, many of Pennsylvania’s estimated 1.4 million uninsured may be unable to participate. What does this mean for them and for the financial health of hospitals? With so many more people covered in both states\, will there be a shortage of physicians\, as many experts expect? \nThis briefing will help you answer these questions for your readers\, viewers and listeners. \nPanelists: \n\n\nKaren Pollitz\, senior fellow at the Kaiser Family Foundation and former Obama administration official  \n\n\nGerald Katz\, owner\, Healthcare Management Consulting \n\n\nUwe Reinhardt\, professor of economics and public affairs at Princeton University  \n\n\nKarl Stark\, health editor of The Philadelphia Inquirer \n\n\nModerator: Marilyn Werber Serafini\, communications director and health policy advisor at the Alliance for Health Reform\, a nonpartisan\, nonprofit health policy group in Washington\, DC \nPlease RSVP to Marilyn Serafini 240-401-3514 mserafini@allhealth.org \nThis briefing is sponsored by AHCJ\, the Alliance for Health Reform and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
