As many of you are aware the Michigan Business & Professional Association launched its Health Care Reform Connect™ website and e-publication last fall.

We wanted to take a moment to update you on what we have been working on as it relates to supporting Michigan Businesses and your clients through the implementation of health care reform. Here is a summary of activities in case you missed one:

•    The development and launch of Health Care Reform Connect™ last fall has resulted in thousands of visits to our website by Michigan Businesses and independent agents who are looking for reliable information on health care reform and a source to get their reform questions answered.
•    We have been hosting health care reform seminars, monthly webinars, and reform conferences across the state with several hundred attendees who have learned about the impact of health care reform on their business.
•    We have published numerous health care reform articles from various subject matter experts from around the country – available via our secured site as downloadable PDF’s.
•    Our team has spent countless hours lobbying at the State and Federal level on health care reform and the impact on Michigan Businesses and its employees.
•    We have launched a dozen health care reform tools such as our Small Business Health Care Reform Guide, Tax Credit and FTE Calculators, Health Care Reform Timeline, and Reform Roadmap, to name a few, to help Michigan businesses and their agents through health care reform.
•    We have hosted dozens’ of onsite meetings with members and agents to help educate them on health care reform.
•    We have developed a reform “hotlink” giving members and agents the opportunity to ask their specific health care reform questions with a typical answer back in 24 hours. This free service for our members has saved them countless hours and helped to clear the fog on reform.
•    Health care reform alerts and e-publication available to members and agents. Each month we send out an updated e-publication via our Health Care Reform Connect™ brand with an overview of new tools, articles and white papers on reform. We also send out timely reform alerts when various federal departments make announcements regarding reform.
