Sharing Ideas:
Meeting the Demands of the 2007 AEP

HAP Conference Call
Wednesday, November 28, 2007
3:00 PM ET 

With the 2007 Annual Enrollment Period already two weeks underway, it is time to gather the SHIP Community together to discuss how counselors and beneficiaries are faring. For much of the summer and early fall, SHIPs were preparing for a variety of scenarios. Some SHIPs predicted high call volume, while others anticipated a repeat of the 2006 AEP, when demand for assistance was relatively low.

Join others from the SHIP network this Wednesday, November 28, to compare notes and exchange ideas for counseling through the 2007 Annual Enrollment Period.
