SHIFT - A Community Healthcare Event

Trig Life Services in Eden Prairie is launching its first
event to help people take control of their medical care, finances and overall
well-being.

The event, called SHIFT, will bring together Twin Cities
health experts and consumers for an evening designed to help people live
healthier and make better medical care choices. This is the first in a series
of events that Trig Life Services is putting on in the Twin Cities to raise
awareness of consumers’ power in controlling medical costs, being assertive in clinics and hospitals to get the care they need, and overall living healthier.

“We want people to become smarter healthcare consumers,” said Mick Hawton, Trig’s Vice President of Business Development and Operations.
“We want to help them learn the skills they need to make empowered, informed
choices and save money. This event is one of the many ways that Trig, along
with our partners, can help people do that.”

The keynote speaker for the evening is Dr. Charlie Fazio, former Chief Medical Officer at Medica. This discussion will be about health and health care,
about how to advocate for yourself and find your voice. Each person’s health is personal and complex, reflecting a mix of genetics, environment and habits. But just as you can impact your physical health, you can also shape the quality and cost of your health care.

“We think this is
going to be a can’t-miss opportunity to learn from top healthcare experts—and
we’ll have some fun in the process,” Hawton said.
