I am pleased to invite you to the Louisiana Department of Insurance 2018 Annual Health Care Conference on Tuesday, October 23, 2018 at the Crowne Plaza Baton Rouge Hotel.

This year’s conference will feature panel discussions on a host of issues including the future of the individual health market in Louisiana, alternative approaches to cost containment, as well as how the health insurance industry will be affected by the newly released rules on Short-Term Plans and Association Health Plans.

We are excited to welcome national experts such as Dr. Richard Migliori, Executive Vice President and Chief Medical Officer of United Health Group; Joseph Touschner, Senior Health Policy Advisor of NAIC; Matt Gallivan, Health Policy Director for US Senator Bill Cassidy; and Marcy Buckner, VP of Government Affairs for the National Association of Health Underwriters.

I hope you will join us as we explore the key drivers that will undoubtedly alter the health care industry for all health care constituencies in Louisiana and the nation as a whole. Register soon as seating is limited. We look forward to seeing you there.

Jim Donelon
Commissioner of Insurance
Louisiana Department of Insurance
