Health care forum discusses issues

MENASHA- Many people still have questions about the new Affordable Care Act health care law.

On Thursday night, some of those questions were discussed in Menasha.

It kicked off a two-day conference called Its Here: The Federal Health Insurance Marketplace in Wisconsin.

From Web site problems to a maze of changing information, people at this forum at UW-Fox Valley said they're confused and frustrated at health insurance changes.

I keep having more questions than answers and that's why I'm here, said Wiley McCraron.

Find out what kind of plans that there are and whether I can keep the same doctors, said Barb McKinon.

Dr. Corina Norrbom with the Wisconsin Institute for Public Policy and Service says she hopes this forum will clear up misconceptions.

In the grand scheme of things, the affordable care act isn't going anywhere just because the web site isn't working right now. It's here. It's the law, said Norrbom.

Norrbom says despite current issues with the federal health care marketplace site, the Affordable Care Act will help people previously uninsured.

But those who consult businesses about the changes say the corporate world still isn't completely convinced.
