2006 Capitol Conference Overview - Why YOU Should Attend

Our industry is one of the most heavily regulated in the country. Health care costs are a huge issue for every individual and business, therefore every lawmaker on Capitol Hill has an idea of how to bring down costs. Many of these ideas would change or take away the free market system that we know works the best. If your representatives in Congress are only hearing from the other side—those who favor a government-run single payer system, for example—then that's the sort of legislation they'll propose. It's vital that we visit with them and present ideas that work and that won't bod down our health insurance delivery system.

NAHU's members are the most informed health insurance professionals in the country. Members of Congress look to us for ideas and feedback. The health staffers who advise the members of Congress on the issues are often new to the position and need to hear how the system works in the real world. Without the input of our members from every state, our health insurance system would be in a lot of trouble right now.

Capitol Conference is a unique chance to sit down with the people who make the laws that affect our profession and our clients. They respect our opinions. Because NAHU members have been visiting them and sharing good ideas for 15 years, they look forward to sitting down with health insurance legislation experts. Be a part of one of the most exciting events in our industry—come to Capitol Conference 2006 and help us make a difference!
