Open enrollment for MNsure began Saturday. Individuals and families have until Feb. 15 to decide which plan is best for them.  Even if already enrolled in the last year, it is very important to review coverage annually.

In an effort to make information easily available to the public, Sterling has arranged to hold two informational sessions in Albert Lea.

Sessions will be hosted by AdvisorNet Financial, an independent advisory company, from 9 to 10 a.m. and 4 to 5 p.m. Dec. 4 at Wedgewood Cove Golf Club. The sessions are open to the public at no cost. Space is limited, so individuals are urged to register as soon as possible by contacting Jennifer Hendrikson at 507-434-2299 or emailing jhendrikson@advisornet.com. Private advisory sessions may be scheduled subsequent to the public sessions.
