Who, What, When, Where & Why?

We stand at the brink of the most significant change to our healthcare system to occur in the past 30 years. The legislative process of healthcare reform will change the system in ways that may not be fully understood for many years. As in any significant change there are bound to be both positive and negative aspects. It is also likely that not all groups will be equally impacted.

Events in recent years have already shown us that times are changing. Our employers can no longer afford the heavy burden of health insurance and they have been modifying how they offer this benefit to us. For most of us that means we pay more for our healthcare personally than ever before. We are starting to take notice of the cost of care and are becoming concerned. It is becoming clear we need to be good healthcare consumers if we are to prosper in the future.
