The first quarter of the year is officially over. Healthcare reform is being challenged daily. Each day leaving each of us with a feeling of uncertainty.

Our Golf Outing is at Boulder Creek on May 19th.
We will continue to pass information to you as we know it on current legislation and upcoming events.
It is time to put forth your nominations for next year's board.
NEOHUA remains diligent in protecting and serving our membership.
It is time to get involved to assist in driving changes!
Look forward to seeing you on the direction to the path of change.

Conference talking points are discussed and paints a picture about the fun of going to CapCon. Or not.

Political action takes on many forms, directions and involvements. One specific action is becoming a member of HUPAC or, as we like to say, "You-PAC." HUPAC is a powerful player for YOU in federal politics. NAHU members have supported HUPAC and our legislative priorities, which is the lifeblood of our association. HUPAC can only raise funds from NAHU members so it's crucial that every NAHU member takes the next step in their membership and contributes to HUPAC. Have you heard enough?

Presidential politics dominate the airwaves and talk shows across the country. However, Congress will be the body that has the most effect on healthcare and any redesign. So while the most attention is given to the presidential race, whether Trump or Clinton wins, Congress will impact your professional life the most. HUPAC is focused on the legislative branch and the congressional races up for election.
Time is running out. As we push into the last few weeks of the election cycle, HUPAC needs YOU! It doesn't take a lot to become a HUPAC contributor, as little as $3 a week -- less than the price of a Starbucks latte. If you're convinced,
click here to become a supporter for $12 a month.
As you know, both sides of the political aisle have bills ready to go that will impact you. We need to make sure we have friends on both sides of the aisle who will protect us all. HUPAC is one very important political action committee that supports candidates who support our legislative agenda, and we have a track record of winners being elected to Congress.
YOU are at the frontline of providing consumers the right health insurance choice. YOU understand the depth of health insurance issues. YOU make a difference every day for your clients. Its time YOU join the others to make a difference in the halls of Congress. We all need YOU. HUPAC needs YOU!
So will you join me today in becoming a HUPAC monthly contributor?
YOUR CONTRIBUTION MAKES A REAL DIFFERENCE.
Thank you for all you do to help HUPAC!
Sincerely,
Eric Kohlsdorf
National HUPAC Chair

OAHU Members,
Are you interested in sending a reminder to your customers about the 201
7 OAHU/CareWorksComp Workers' Compensation Group Rating program? More than 4,587 businesses participate in the OAHU group rating program, collectively they receive $16+ Million in workers' compensation premium savings, average annual savings for OAHU participants is $3,686. While helping your customers save money you can earn 31.25% the first year and renewal commissions (paid on the service fee charged to the client) when your group clients enroll in CareWorksComp Worker's Compensation Group Plan.
The group rating deadlines are fast approaching and we want to make sure that your customers who would like a free quote, can receive one in time to enroll in the 2016 program. CareWorksComp must receive an AC3 (Temporary Authorization) by November 8
th
to allow enough time to receive data from the BWC to determine group rating eligibility for your customers for the 201
7 rate year. If you need an electronic copy of your customized AC3, please contact our program manager, Beverly Westover, at CareWorksComp. I have included her contact information below. I would also like to remind you that the group rating enrollment deadlines are November 16 (traditional group rating) and January 25 (group retrospective rating). Many of your customers can receive a savings of $1,000 or greater by participating in the OAHU/CareWorksComp group rating program.
