League of Women Voters Event Helps Northfielders Understand the Affordable Care Act

Charlie Mandile has had a lot of time to study the ins and outs of the Affordable Care Act since President Barack Obama signed comprehensive health reform into law in March 2010.
The executive director of HealthFinders Collaborative took what he learned and brought it to the county and community level to talk about its impact during the “ABCs of the Affordable Care Act” event held Tuesday night at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Northfield.
The League of Women Voters of Northfield and Cannon Falls sponsored the event, which was attended by more than 100 people, there to listen to the panel of three and to seek answers to questions about ACA. Enrollment of the nationwide program begins on Oct. 1, with coverage beginning Jan. 1, 2014.
