Jacksonville, Florida — Not since Bill Clinton’s first term as President of the United States has the nation’s chief executive, Congress and indeed the American people focused so much attention on health care, health insurance and reforming both of these interrelated systems. The debate over what can and should be done – and what cannot and should not be done – in regard to health care deliver and payment for services in the United States has intensified in recent days as both the House and Senate approach their summer recess. President Obama initially established the House recess date of August 3 as the deadline for which he actually wanted to see health care and health insurance legislation on his desk in the Oval Office.

As a national broker of insurance professionals we must have you take notice to the legistlation that is in process within our Congress.  How will health insurance reform change your business?  Have you read any of the proposals being recommended?  We at HIBO Insurance suggest you take part with Norvax and NAHU to get up to speed.  Read below…

As Congress continues to develop health insurance reform legislation, the National Association of Health Underwriters (NAHU) has worked diligently to protect consumer access to professionally licensed and trained health insurance agents, brokers and consultants. Norvax wholeheartedly supports this NAHU campaign.
Now NAHU needs your help and Congress needs to hear your voice.
We encourage you to do this today.
Please invest 3 minutes of your time and help shape the reform legislation making its way through Congress. NAHU has set up an easy-to-use online form to send a message to our Congressional representatives and the White House.
Just go to NAHU’s Legislative Advocacy page at: http://tinyurl.com/o8emj9
Fill out the brief form and NAHU will automatically send a pre-written email for you to…
• Your House Representative
• Your Senators
• President Barack Obama
• Vice-President Joseph Biden
You may also add to or change that message. If you wish, you can also print out a letter that you can send by regular mail as well.
Both Norvax and NAHU share the belief that health care reform is one of the most important issues of our time. As part of our support of the NAHU campaign and independent insurance agents in general, Norvax is encouraging everyone we know to participate in this important public discussion.
Consumers shopping for health insurance should continue to have a variety of health insurance options. These consumers will always need expert help and support from trained professionals to make the right health insurance decision. We, at Norvax, believe that state-licensed agents and brokers serve a critical role in connecting the 47 million uninsured Americans with the right health insurance plan for them.
Health insurance professionals undergo years of training to become trusted advisors for the majority of consumers and small business owners who lack the time or expertise to navigate the complex bureaucracy.
Trained health insurance professionals also play a crucial role for small businesses that currently provide health insurance coverage to employees. For many employers, their licensed agents, brokers and consultants act as de facto health benefit managers.

Make sure you send this to all fellow health insurance brokers in the United States.  Everyone must get informed to the process that is taking place.  Have you researched the future of your career?
