“Okay, thank you for that. First, this evening, we have some presentations today. We're going to have two presentations. One is called Curative Health Insurance Presentation, and the other one is Sidecar Health Insurance Presentations. And we appreciate you coming this evening. I do want to point out we have a long council meeting, so We try to limit the presentation to 10 minutes. And then if the council has any questions or anyone from the public has any questions, we will go from there. But who's going to speak first? If you could come up to the podium and introduce yourself.”
