PBS "NOW" Show
Examines Dirigo Health

On Friday, February 24th at 10:30 p.m. (on Channel 10, 13, 12, and 26), the "NOW" show from the Public Broadcasting Station will be taking a look at Maine's new health care plan to reduce costs, increase access, and improve the quality of health care in Maine.

In early February, the "NOW" show contacted Joseph Ditre, the Executive Director of Consumers for Affordable Health Care, to interview him for this segment. In addition, we have heard from a few individuals and businesses enrolled in DirigoChoice coverage that they were also contacted for an interview for this show.

We expect that this will be an interesting and informative look at Maine's innovative Dirigo Health Reform and DirigoChoice coverage.

The "Now" show will be aired by the Maine Public Broadcasting Network, at the following dates and times, and on the following stations:

First Airing:
Friday, February 24th at 10:30 p.m.
Re-Airing:
Saturday, February 25th at 6:30 p.m.
