LCH: Local Resource for Affordable Care Act during Open Enrollment
LCH Health Insurance Navigators and Applications Counselors provide free services to enroll and re-enroll community members in health insurance.
Health insurance enrollment for 2017 coverage is just around the corner for those participating in health care plans with the Affordable Care Act. Enrollment begins November 1, 2016 and ends on January 31, 2017.
La Comunidad Hispana (LCH) will be an important resource in the coming months, as full-time staff are trained and ready to help community members navigate the marketplace health insurance plans. “Whether you are currently uninsured or already covered, enrollment is the one time of the year to enroll in a plan, review and switch to another plan that might suit you better, or simply renew and update the plan that you already use”, commented Ted Trevorrow, Outreach
and Enrollment Coordinator/Navigator at LCH. “Our team can help you with any questions you may have, and how to take the next steps towards protecting yourself and your family.”
Marketplace assistance at LCH is available by appointment, which can be made during normal business hours: 8:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 8:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. Friday.
