Anne M. Alexander at Saturday U: What Does Health Care Reform Mean for Wyoming 
Saturday U, Summer Session 2012 was held October 6 at the National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson.  
Anne M. Alexander, Director, International Programs at University of Wyoming, presented What Does Health Care Reform Mean for Wyoming? Health Exchanges, Medicaid & Provider Challenges
The Affordable Care Act and healthcare provision present special challenges to Wyoming. Many parts of the Cowboy State have extremely limited access to primary care, and our small population presents challenges for financing insurance pools and recruiting and retaining primary care providers. What are the challenges and long-term trends for healthcare in Wyoming, from financing to workforce needs? 

Saturday U is free and open to the public. For more details, or to register for college credit or Professional Teaching Standards Board (PTSB) credit, call Susan Thulin, CWC outreach coordinator, (307) 733-7425.
