WEB-BASED CONFERENCE ON DEFINED CONTRIBUTION
HEALTH PLANS, SELF-DIRECTED HEALTH PLANS AND OTHER CONSUMER-DRIVEN HEALTH PLAN INITIATIVES
REQUIRES NO TRAVEL AND ATTENDEES CAN PARTICIPATE 24/7
MODESTO, CA, APRIL 4, 2002 ---- MCOL™, the business-to-business
health management and managed care resource company and leading source of defined care
information, is hosting the Defined Care 2002 Web Summit, April 29 through May 15,
2002. Registration is $39 per individual, with corporate discounts available. For
additional details or to register, go to http://www.definedcare.com/2002summit.htm,
or call 209.577.4888.
Noted defined care
thought leader and MCOL President Clive Riddle, says, “This will be the
‘defining’ event during 2002 on this important marketplace trend. Interest in
this issue is definitely soaring, and more than 600 attendees around the country are
already registered. As we have previously hosted other web based summits, we felt
‘Defined Care’ would be an ideal topic to address through a completely Internet
based experience, where attendees can participate completely at their own schedule, from
their own office or home. Attendees will have the opportunity to easily learn and review
from a wide range of expert presentations and articles, and also network and interact with
faculty and other attendees.”
The Defined Care 2002 Web Summit from MCOL allows attendees to get expert advice, market intelligence and breaking information from Employers, Benefit Consultants, Health Plans, Consumer Directed Plans and National Thought Leaders. The presenters have agreed to respond to attendee e-mail inquiries during the course of the Summit. Presenters represent a variety of organizations including Aetna, A. Baumgarten & Associates, Burger King, Definity Health, Destiny Health, DeMarco and Associates, Empowered Benefits, Evolution Benefits, Lumenos, Helix Benefit Solutions, Managed Care Interface Magazine, MCDermott, Will & Emery, HealthMarket, Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield, Milliman USA, MBI, myHealthBank, and the National Center for Policy Analysis.
The Defined Care 2002 Web
Summit from MCOL facilitates networking with summit participants and faculty, and provides
innovative online tools, e-learning features and searchable databases. No presentation is
scheduled ‘live’, meaning attendees can participate from their own home or
office on their own schedule without having to travel, with 24/7 access to the following
Summit features: E-Mail Summit Summaries; Searchable Databases of Faculty, Summit
Presentations and hundreds of past Defined Care Articles; e-Networking facilities to
communicate with Faculty during the Summit as well as other attendees; and a Defined Care
Forum to post public inquiries and messages.
Attendees will also receive an adobe acrobat version of the
new 2002 Who’s Who in Defined Care Directory, opportunities to enter free prize
drawings, and receive a free three month MCOL Paid Membership (a $36.00 value) which
provides access to MCOL’s paid member web site with extensive health management and
managed care resources, and MCOL’s coveted paid member e-mail delivery services.
Attendees will also get extended use of the Summit site even after Summit closes, with
access through July 31, 2002.
