Sign Up For Health Insurance Coverage By January 31st
Dear Friend,
The Affordable Care Act marked an important step toward making quality and affordable health care accessible to every American. One of the greatest benefits of the ACA is the new insurance marketplace, which provides an affordable place for individuals, families and small businesses to shop for private health insurance. The Marketplace provides a new way to find health coverage that fits your budget and meets your needs. When you use the Health Insurance Marketplace, you are able to fill out one application to see all your insurance options and then enroll in health coverage. You may also be eligible for financial assistance to pay your premium. Open Enrollment ends on January 31, 2016. If you need health insurance coverage in 2015, you must sign up by the January 31st deadline.
You can apply for coverage three ways: online, by mail or in-person with the help of a Navigator or qualified helper. For more information and to apply online you can go to www.GetCoveredIllinois.gov. There is also a toll-free Help Desk at 1-866-311-1119, open from 8:00am to 8:00pm Monday - Friday. Several qualified organizations are holding extended in-person enrollment hours in the final days of open enrollment. You can also visitwww.GetCoveredIllinois.gov for more information or to find assistance in your area. |
