Dear Friend,
Great news! Last month, President Biden issued an executive order to
reopen HealthCare.gov, the official health insurance marketplace, so that
anyone who needs health coverage can sign up. Having just surpassed
500,000 deaths in the U.S. from COVID-19, [ [link removed] ] it is more important than
ever for everyone to have health insurance so that they are covered when
they get sick.
[1]*Sign up now to help get the word out about this Special Health Care
Enrollment Period! When you click, we’ll send you a toolkit with resources
to help spread the word about health care opportunities to your friends
and family.
Under the previous administration, efforts were made to sabotage the ACA
marketplace [ [link removed] ] and the number of uninsured people increased by 2.3
million from 2016 - 2019. [ [link removed] ] At the same time, they cut funding aimed to
inform uninsured people about health insurance options. So, it is crucial
that this new health care enrollment period under President Biden will be
accompanied by a massive increase in funding to make sure people know
about their new insurance options and how to sign up for coverage. [2]This
is a pretty big deal and we need your help to get the word out!
A few key details about the special health care enrollment period:
* A new health care enrollment period in all 36 HealthCare.gov states
began on February 15th and will end on May 15th.
* You will NOT need to show a loss of health care coverage, or other
major life change that is normally required to sign up outside the
annual open enrollment period. (If you are uninsured, you should check
out your options at HealthCare.gov right now!)
* Consumers who enrolled in marketplace health care coverage during last
year’s open enrollment will have the opportunity to change plans
during this enrollment period.
