Lunch and Learn - This Week on October 29!

The first session was a big success and we invite you to attend the next half hour Zoom session. So grab your munchies and spend a few minutes with a close look at healthcare insurance and how it affects you from those who know it best - the Office of Healthcare Advocate (OHA). This will benefit employers, those in HR who handle benefits, consumers, medical providers and others.  The Zoom format sessions will only last 30 minutes once a month starting October 29th at 12pm noon. There will be 15 minutes of presentation followed by 15 minutes for anyone to ask questions. Subjects will change each month. A core mission of OHA is to constantly educate the public and those who work with and serve Connecticut residents. We'll make further announcements via social media and this newsletter.  Follow us on Facebook.

Here is the link to the Zoom session so put it on your calendar.

OHA has saved consumers tens of millions of dollars since the agency was launched - and we've become a trusted resource and consumer advocate on all matters of healthcare insurance here in Connecticut and on developments in Washington, D.C. that can affect us. We share these changes and information  in many ways - social platforms like our page on Facebook and Twitter, press conferences and via this newsletter. If you know somebody who is not getting this newsletter on a regular basis - or is only getting it because it's shared with them - OHA invites one and all to join our exclusive email list. Sign up for the newsletter here. 

The OHA will help you during this crisis get you the assistance you need.
