Health care premiums are substantially stretching family budgets and are hitting small businesses particularly hard. The unpredictability of premium increases also hinders reasonable financial planning.Given continuing shifts in health care market dynamics, premium prices, and insurance company participation, I am convening a Health Care Affordability Forum of experts who can offer informed perspectives on how to navigate the current dynamics of a troubling health care environment. The event is designed to illuminate the current insurance landscape and identify the best options available to individuals within a less than ideal system. The key questions are: What kind of health insurance policies should individuals consider for 2017? Are there savings opportunities? Will cost increases slow? What does our health care future look like? Experts from the Nebraska Department of Insurance, the insurance industry, and a health insurance brokerage firm will articulate what individuals and businesses need to know about health care insurance before November 1st, the start of open enrollment. We hope this conversation will empower Nebraskans to mitigate some of the rising costs.I want to personally invite you to attend the Health Care Affordability Forum: Wednesday, October 19, from 10:00 - 11:00 am Madonna Rehabilitation Hospital (The Sheridan Room), 5401 South Street, Lincoln I hope to see you there. Please contact us at (402) 438-1598 if you have any questions. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
