Featured Health Resource:
Strategies for Navigating the Health Care System

In August 2006, the National Endowment for Financial Education (NEFE, www.nefe.org) and Georgetown University’s Health Policy Institute (hpi.georgetown.edu & healthinsuranceinfo.net) collaborated on three guides to assist consumers in finding and keeping health insurance coverage. These three guides are now available online for free:

• Understanding Private Health Insurance
• Medicare and Medicaid: A Health Care Safety Net for People with Serious Disabilities and Chronic Conditions
• Options for Avoiding and Managing Medical Debt

PLUS: Evaluating Health Insurance Choices Worksheet (A 2-page worksheet to help compare cover options under private insurance.)

Thanks to the folks at ResourceShelf for the links to these great resources.
