[Michlib-l] ACA Webinars - Opportunities for Libraries to Host Smart Choice webinars from MSUE

[White, Shannon (MDE)]

Michigan State University Extension is responding to the health insurance and Affordable Care Act information needs of Michigan consumers by hosting free, non-commercial weekly "Smart Choice" webinars.   The MSU Extension is seeking host partners, such as libraries, who want to offer "Smart Choice" sessions at their library to serve their patrons and the broader community.

MSUE invites your organization to become a hosting partner and to simulcast one or more Smart Choice webinars for the benefit of your patrons, members, or personnel.  MSUE is delivering the 90-minute Smart Choice webinar 3 times every Monday, starting on November 4, at the following times: 9-11am, 3-5pm and 6-8pm. To reserve the webinar date(s) and time(s) that best serves the needs of your organization and community members, email your request to Brenda Long at Healthinsurance at anr.msu.edu<mailto:Healthinsurance at anr.msu.edu>

Attached you can find the "host" letter as well as a general press release about the opportunity.

Designed to reduce confusion and increase capability and confidence among consumers making health insurance plan choices, the Smart Choice content is applicable for current health insurance consumers and those who are newly-eligible through the Affordable Care Act. MSUE is having select MSUE educators trained and certified to present the Smart Choice curriculum for the benefit of Michigan consumers.

If you have any questions about the SmartChoice program, please contact Brenda Long at Healthinsurance at anr.msu.edu<mailto:Healthinsurance at anr.msu.edu>.  You can also contact her to schedule a simulcast of the webinar for your library community.
