First lady, Dr. Biden to outline preventive health care measures at GW

First Lady Michelle Obama, Dr. Jill Biden and Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius plan to outline new preventive health care measures at GW Wednesday.

The event – at the Medical Faculty Associates building – is for press pool only but will be webcasted on the White House’s website starting at 2:15 p.m.

The announcement will center on coverage made available under the Affordable Care Act which was signed into law in March. Affordable health care was a centerpiece of President Barack Obama’s campaign and Mrs. Obama has been campaigning to lower obesity rates in the United States during her term as first lady.
