Restaurateurs push La. Congressional Delegation for more info on healthcare

Last week, nearly 50 Louisiana Restaurant Association (LRA) members attended the NRA’s Public Affairs Conference. Healthcare was no doubt the featured topic of discussion of the more than 550 attendees that gathered from across the nation in Washington, DC.

As a result of our group’s frank dialogue in meetings with the Louisiana Congressional Delegation about the need for more information, particularly about the Health Insurance Marketplace (also known as exchanges), LRA members are invited to participate in a stakeholder consultation teleconference Monday, April 29, 2013 at 1 p.m.

James Randolph Farris, MD, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Consortium Administrator and Marjorie McColl Petty, U.S Dept. of Health & Human Services (HHS) Regional Director will update participants on policies and the operations of the Marketplace and take stakeholder comments, questions and answers. The feedback will be used in the development of the Marketplace.

Date: 4/29/2013

Time: 1 p.m. (CDT)

Registration is required. Register here.
