Honolulu, HI (Nov. 21, 2023) – UHA Health Insurance has promoted Michael Story to community development & engagement specialist.

In this position, Mr. Story oversees the development and management of all partnerships and community engagement for UHA through philanthropic programs and promotional initiatives and events.
