Congratulations to Craig Gussin of the San Diego Association of Health Underwriters for his continued outreach into the community and his recent appearance on San Diego's Channel 6 News as a part of their coverage on the new ARRA COBRA changes.
In addition to doing an excellent job on ARRA COBRA, Craig also touted the importance of working with your own professional agent who should be a member of the Association of Health Underwriters. Craig also took the opportunity to plug the Matrix as an important health insurance resource and that your local agent is the best place to get one!
Great job, Craig! Keep up the great work!

Poizner Showcases Web Site With Information on Health Insurance
On Thursday, California State Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner (R) showcased the website www.coverageforall.org intended to highlight health insurance options for unemployed people, according to the Sacramento Business Journal.
The San Jose based Foundation for Health Coverage Education maintains the site and a 24 hour uninsured hotline as part of an effort to facilitate access to state and federal health insurance programs. Founded in 2004 by Phil Lebherz, FHCE is a non-profit 501(c)3 public organization that has long been supported by the California Association of Health Underwriters and has served as the model for a national program through the National Association of Health Underwriters that serves consumers in all the 50 states in the search for available health insurance coverage options, the Healthy Access Database, which can be found at www.nahu.org/consumer/healthcare/ .
As California and the nation embark on the challenging journey to reform America's health care system, it is important to remember that there is no group, no organization or entity that understands consumers or our health care system better than our national and state associations of Health Underwriters. The work of the Foundation, CAHU and NAHU in providing these consumer directed data bases is just another example of the solid commitment of agents all across this country to their clients.
Congratulations to Phil Lebherz, Executive Director of the Foundation for Health Coverage Education, Ankeny Minoux, the Foundation's president and the dedicated folks that have worked with them over the last several years. Being singled out as "the source" by the Department of Insurance is a tremendous achievement!
