Asian American and Pacific Islander Communities and the Affordable Care Act

The White House Office of Public Engagement, the White House Initiative on Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders, and the Department of Health and Human Services invite you to join a conference call on the implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and its impact on Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities on Thursday, July 29, 2010 at 4:30 PM ET.

AAPIs represent many ethnicities and languages and both spectrums of socioeconomic status and health indices. Recognizing disparities in health outcomes experienced by AAPIs and their unique barriers in accessing health care, this call will focus on ACA issues of most relevance to AAPI communities.

Please join senior Administration officials for an overview of the Affordable Care Act including preventive health benefits, minority health and health disparities provisions, and resources most relevant to Asian American and Pacific Islander communities.

WHEN: Thursday, July 29, 2010 at 4:30 PM ET

DIAL-IN: Dial (800) 230-1096 and ask for the Asian American & Pacific Islander Healthcare Call (be sure to dial in 5-10 minutes early).

Please feel free to distribute this invitation widely.
