AUGUST 2012

Greetings!

 

August brings with it sweltering heat (like we haven't had enough of that already?) and the anticipation of our young ones going back to school.

 

It is also Immunization Awareness Month and National Children's Eye Health and Safety Month.  This edition of Healthcare News contains information and links regarding both of these as well as some much needed clarification around the issue of MLR (Medical Loss Ratio) Rebates.

 

As always, we thank you for allowing us to serve you.

 

Sincerely,

Your Lake Norman Benefits Team
