HARTSELLE, Ala. (October 1, 2025) – The Hartselle Area Chamber of Commerce will host its annual State of Healthcare event on Tuesday, October 7, at the Sparkman Civic Center in Hartselle, offering community members and business leaders valuable insight into navigating today’s managed healthcare plans.

This year’s event will feature a presentation by Justin Graves with the North Central Alabama Regional Council of Governments (NARCOG), who will provide practical guidance on how to understand managed healthcare plans, what to look for when choosing coverage, and how to make confident, informed decisions.
