– WHAT ON EARTH IS THE ACA? Have you been reading and
hearing about the ACA recently? At best the information presented in the
media is confusing and conflicting. It has been very politicized and is
quite controversial. So exactly what is it and how will it affect each of
us? Join Ronda Thomas, MA, Client Resource Specialist at Beach
Cities Health District in a discussion about the legislation. Learn how
the State of California is implementing it, how it will impact medical care
locally, and some of the other issues surrounding the ACA.
Penny Hendricks will moderate.
