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.

SUMMARY:Application deadline: AHCJ Regional Health Journalism Fellowship
DESCRIPTION:The Association of Health Care Journalists has created this program with the support of The Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust. Through our Center for Excellence in Health Care Journalism\, we select 10-12 journalists annually from a specific region of the country for this special opportunity. The 2010-2011 fellowship class will come from Minnesota\, Iowa\, North Dakota\, South Dakota and Nebraska. \nThe aim of the program is to provide already-established journalists with the tools needed to improve the depth and amount of coverage focused on localizing critical health issues. The program is designed by journalists for journalists. Although the training is spread over a year’s time\, actual time away from the newsroom totals about two weeks. \nSpecifically\, we provide:\n\n\nA day-and-a-half fellowship kickoff session with a special focus on state health policy. (Planned for Sioux Falls\, S.D.\, July 14 & 15.) \n\n\nAn intense one-week health reporting boot camp at the Missouri School of Journalism featuring some of the top health journalists in the country. (Aug. 14-18) \n\n\nThree days of customized briefings at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta. (Planned for Dec. 4-6.) \n\n\nAn exclusive one-hour newsmaker webinar you can take part in from home or the office. (Planned for January.) \n\n\nFour days at Health Journalism 2012\, the annual conference of AHCJ featuring dozens of workshops\, panel sessions\, field trips and news briefings with key health experts and policy makers. (Planned for Atlanta next April.) \n\n\nThe one-day 2012 Rural Health Journalism Workshop. (Planned for Lincoln\, Neb.\, in early June next year.) \n\n\nA professional membership in the Association of Health Care Journalists\, with access to all print and Web-based member resources. \n\n\nAccess to an experienced personal mentor from AHCJ’s 1\,100-plus membership. \n\n\nA fellows-only listserv and Web page. \n\n\nContinuing resource support after the fellowship. \n\n\nThe program will cover training expenses\, travel and lodging costs\, registration and membership fees and most food costs. We only ask that you commit to attending the sessions with the other fellows. \nWe believe your reporting and writing will be stronger\, your understanding of health issues related to medical research\, health policy and the business of health care will be deeper and your ability to translate national trends into locally significant stories will be clearer. \nOur application deadline is June 1. Download an application.  \n  \nFor comments from former fellows of our Midwest program\, upon which this fellowship was built\, check out the quotes page.

SUMMARY:Health in the Headlines: A European conference on health journalism
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Coventry University and the Association of Health Care Journalistswith support from the Medical Journalists Association (UK) and EU's HeaRT project\nSpeakers will include health journalists\, researchers and policy officials from England\, the United States\, Ireland\, Italy\, Greece and other nations. \nHealth systems in Europe are complex\, costly\, under pressure from a growing elderly population and increasingly subject to complicated "reforms" and reorganization. Health research generates a daily flow of highly technical literature\, while powerful multinational drug companies spend millions on extensive public relations campaigns. \n  \nFollow #ahcj11uk on Twitter or see our archive  of tweets from the conference. \n\nWhile the public is dependent upon the news media for information on health\, public health campaigns\, news on health services and the latest new drugs and treatments\, only a minority of the journalists covering health stories have any specific training on health issues. Most are left to "learn on the job" – and many become too dependent on a diet of press releases and managed news. \n  \n  \nThe program \n  \nThis conference aims to address some of the key issues in health journalism\, as well as the state of training of health journalists\, and pressures in modern newsrooms. See the schedule and who will be speaking.   \n  \n  \n  \n  \nRegistration\n  \nThe conference  will be held in Coventry University's Ellen Terry Building. Coventry is easily accessible by road\, or rail\, and is just 15 minutes by train from Birmingham airport. \n  \n  \nEarly-bird registration  for the conference is open until May 15\, offering savings of 30 percent or more on late registration: \n\n\nUK rate £100\nOutside UK rate £60\n\n  \nRegister online. \n
