2010 Health Meeting Scheduled for June 28-30 in Orlando!
by the SOA
Attend the SOA '10 Health Meeting, where we've lined up engaging speakers, thought-provoking sessions and plenty of networking opportunities. You won't want to miss our point/counterpoint debate between two leading minds in health care reform, followed by a question-and-answer session. Matt Weinstein, humorist and author of Work Like Your Dog, will round out our speakers. We've got sessions planned on a wide variety of topics–emotional intelligence, trends and issues facing health insurance companies and reinsurers and untapped opportunities for health actuaries. And, we're once again offering a unique learning experience-sign up for our computer-based learning session, where you will design a basic health plan to cover the uninsured. The catch? The money available is one-third less than typical employer based coverage. Learn more at http://healthmeeting.soa.org.
