Health Insurance Link unveiled in Red Hook

(Getting to this one a little late.......)

Bloomberg came to Red Hook last week to unveil a new web based tool to help New Yorkers find Health Insurance. The Brooklyn Daily Eagle reported on the event and the tool in an article on 9-21 saying:
Mayor Michael Bloomberg came to this Brooklyn industrial neighborhood yesterday to unveil the New York City Health Insurance Link, a new web-based tool to help New Yorkers find a health insurance plan that best fits their healthcare needs and budgets.

The tool is available at www.NYC.gov and is targeted to small business owners, freelancers and other independent or unemployed workers who do not currently have health insurance coverage or are shopping for more affordable coverage.

The mayor was joined for the announcement at Uhuru Design, a custom furniture and design company, by Deputy Mayor Linda I. Gibbs; Human Resources Administration Commissioner Robert Doar; Uhuru owners Bill Hilgendorf and Jason Horvath and many other officials.

Chris, thanks for your post. I was at this press conference. The tool is actually directly available at www.nyc.gov/HILink. It's really easy to use and informative--refreshing to have all of these resources in one place!
