Navigating the complex and often overwhelming subject of health care coverage just got a little easier.On September 20, 2010 the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services unveiled CuidadoDeSalud.gov (HealthCare.gov), a Spanish website (with English translation available) offering a wealth of information on the topic of health care coverage.
Included on the site are sections on insurance options, prevention, comparing care quality and health care law. Also available is health care coverage information specifically targeted to people in different life stages.
According to Blogadillo (News from the National Network of Libraries of Medicine South Central Region), CuidadoDeSalud.gov is "the first website in Spanish of its kind to help consumers take control of their health care by connecting them to new information and resources that will help them access quality, affordable health care coverage".
