Election ends September 30.
When you purchased health insurance coverage, you may not have been thinking in terms of “joining” an organization; you may have simply been buying what you felt was the best available coverage.
But we are so much more than that: we are a nonprofit, governed by our members, providing service to our fellow members.
And we want your voice on the board!
