SUMMARY:ACA enrollment round II: Do consumers have the help they need?
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Atlanta chapter of the Association of Health Care Journalists and the nonpartisan Alliance for Health Reform for a special event focusing on the Affordable Care Act’s second open enrollment. \nThe Affordable Care Act’s second open enrollment period runs through mid-February\, and millions of people are already looking for help to find the best insurance fit. While many who signed up last year are expected to shop around for different health plans\, millions more may become first time buyers. \nThis briefing will explore the availability and usefulness of in-person assistance programs (navigators\, assisters and brokers) that are intended to help individuals search and apply for coverage. After last year’s enrollment difficulties\, we will look at the challenges of this second round\, with a particular focus on the help available to consumers. \n\n\nTrey Sivley\, division director in Georgia’s Division of Insurance and Financial Oversight Office of Insurance and Safety Fire Commissioner\, will address differences in the enrollment process from the first to the second enrollment cycle. \n\n\nLisa Stein\, vice president of work and family supports at Seedco\, a navigator program in Atlanta\, will discuss the help available to Georgians enrolling or reenrolling for coverage\, and also barriers to enrollment. \n\n\nCathy Bowden\, information management coordinator at The Georgia Association for Primary Health Care\, will address the role of primary care medical providers in getting information to consumers.  \n\n\nAndy Miller\, editor and CEO at Georgia Health News\, will provide an overview of enrollment in Georgia and talk about what stories reporters should pay attention to moving forward. \n\n\nWhen:Open bar and refreshments at 7 p.m.Program 7:30 p.m. – 9 p.m. \nLocation:Ri Ra Irish Pub1080 Peachtree St. NEAtlanta \nRSVP: Andy Miller (andymill111@yahoo.com or 404-386-8290) or Marilyn Werber Serafini (mserafini@allhealth.org or 202-789-2300). \nThis event is sponsored by AHCJ\, the Alliance for Health Reform and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.

SUMMARY:AHCJ D.C. Chapter: Holiday Party
DESCRIPTION:Here we go again. More fun than another Obamacare battle at the Supreme Court\, it’s the 4th annual… AHCJ Washington\, D.C.\, Chapter: Holiday Party! \nYou’re invited to the Association of Health Care Journalists’ D.C. chapter’s Holiday networking gathering! \nCome toast the holiday season with some craft beer from D.C. and Belgium and vintage wine — along with some light food as well. \nNo formal program – just a gathering to tell war stories from 2014 and look forward to another crazy year in 2015. We’ve invited some special guests from government and industry. \nDate & time: \n6 p.m. – 8 p.m.\, Dec. 4. \nLocation: The National Journal offices inside The Watergate at 600 New Hampshire Ave NW. \nAll health journalists are invited. Please RSVP by Dec. 2 to pgalewitz@kff.org. \nThe Details: The Watergate is across the street from the Kennedy Center.  If you walk in the main doors closest to New Hampshire Ave. and turn left\, you will see the elevators. The party is on the 8th floor in the common area\, but after-hours access requires someone to scan in to start the elevator. We’ll have someone in the lobby to greet & get people upstairs.  Please plan to arrive no later than 7:15. \nMetro: Foggy Bottom is the closest Metro—about a 7 minute walk. When exiting the station\, walk in the opposite direction of the restaurants (Circa\, Whole Foods)\, and head through the GW campus and toward New Hampshire Ave and make a left. Go down New Hampshire and around the traffic circle in the direction of the Kennedy Center. \nDriving: Are you nuts? The Watergate is accessible by two parking garages\, the Watergate and the Kennedy Center.
