NASRO provides access and information on affordable health insurance in Nevada

Nevada consumers are too sophisticated to not notice the ever rising costs that are being shifted from the health insurance companies, the doctors and the large employers to the Nevada health care consumer in the form of higher deductibles, co pays and most importantly premium costs.
Find out your health insurance rates within minutes of speaking to our staff. Our health insurance proposals offer the best rates available. You can not obtain better rates even if you go directly to the insurance companies themselves.
Apply directly from an application you print out on your computer. NASRO is staffed by human beings who will provide you with help completing the applications and will go through the questions with you line by line.

FCC: Health Data Exchanges To Need More Broadband Support
At the Health Information and Management Systems Society annual conference on Tuesday, the Federal Communications Commission announced multiple recommendations involving new funding and regulations for broadband Internet connections that support health IT exchange, Government Health IT reports.
The recommendations stem from an FCC survey that found the U.S. lacks sufficient broadband connections to meet criteria for "meaningful use" of electronic health records that will determine whether health care providers are eligible for incentive payments under the 2009 federal economic stimulus package.
The survey found that as many as 3,600 small practices do not have even basic broadband services, while thousands of other locations face price disparities of as much as $45,000 each year for the same services available in better connected areas.
Recommendations
To address such access problems, FCC proposes:
- Changing its Rural Health Care Program to use the initiative's annual $400 million budget to establish a health care broadband access fund to assist health care providers and other institutions in purchasing broadband services;
- Establishing a health care broadband infrastructure fund to aid providers in expanding broadband networks where the existing infrastructure is lacking; and
- Changing the way providers are reimbursed for handling "e-care" distributed over broadband links, which providers have said is one of the biggest barriers to health IT adoption.
FCC wants to link funding as closely as possible to meaningful use to ensure that the money goes to locations following the guidance of the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT.
The recommendations are part of FCC's upcoming National Broadband Plan that it is expected to deliver to Congress by March 17 (Robinson, Government Health IT, 3/2).
