Health Care for Minnesota.Org

Health Care for Minnesota.Org
A new health care site. Not sure who all is behind it. Got it from this message from a Minneapolis State Rep.

Subject: Update from Rep. Thissen

Families USA released today another important report on the state of health care and health coverage in Minnesota. You can find the report, Failing Grades: State Consumer Protections in the Individual Health Insurance Market, at http://familiesusa.org/resources/publications/reports/failing-grades.html.

Among other items, the report documents that Minnesota is in the bottom half of states in denying coverage for preexisting health conditions. The report also criticizes Minnesota rules that allow insurance companies to revoke coverage after an individual contracts a serious illness.

The report will also be posted at www.healthcareformn.org, a new website focused on health care reform in Minnesota.

I am trying to follow health care reform efforts in MN and heard about this web site from a state rep. It seems to be some kind of marketing site for web site domain registration. Anyone having better luck finding out who these people are and how to get in touch? S

The site is

It is for Rep. T. to push his version of reform - which appears to be feeding the HMO dragon.
