Thursday webinar for journalists on Affordable Care Act to focus on ways to approach stories

The Kaiser Family Foundation's informative series of webinars for journalists about the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act continues Thursday from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. ET. This webinar will focus on "approaches to covering this complex story by incorporating individual examples; provide tips and techniques for digging into the details of the law (with expert help) to describe how its provisions play out in real life; and suggest new angles and under-reported story ideas. Additionally, they will identify upcoming policy deadlines and timelines and explore how to weave these into your stories over the next several months," according to Kaiser. The event will be hosted by Kaiser staff writer Sarah Varney and Michelle Andrews, who writes a weekly health column for The Washington Post.

Journalists who want to register can RSVP by clicking here. Shortly after registering, each participant will receive a confirmation email that contains information about how to join the webinar. If you are unable to join this webinar but would like to receive all future updates about the series, please email your name and media affiliation to acawebinars@kff.org. Video and transcripts are also available for the first three webinars, “What Do Consumers Need to Know About Health Reform’s Changes,” “Understanding Insurance Premiums Under the Affordable Care Act" and "The Impact of State Decisions."
