The shape and scope may still be uncertain, but health reform tops the legislative agenda these days. Insurance reform—especially health insurance for individuals not covered by a group or employer—is sure to be addressed.

The Forum has convened a series of small-group discussions to help senior federal staff navigate the ins and outs of the individual insurance market, as well as options for reform. To date, topics have included underwriting, rating, and regulation; insurance exchanges; risk adjustment; and actuarial equivalence. Future meetings will add to these fundamental building blocks.

As speaker slides and related materials become available, we’re posting them to a special Health Reform section of our Health Policy Essentials page. They’re also available under the entry for each meeting.

Check it out. And look for more health reform related programming over the coming months.
