If you’re a Billboard reader, you may have already seen this Op-Ed by FMC’s Alex Maiolo about how the passage of health care reform legislation may impact musicians.

Alex is the program officer for FMC’s Health Insurance Navigation Tool (HINT), which provides free information to musicians curious about their health insurance options. HINT doesn’t sell insurance, but it does help demystify a complex topic. Artists can sign up via the HINT website to receive a free phone consultation where they can go over their situation on a case-by-case, state-by state basis with one of our experts (who also happen to be musicians).
