Whether you have health insurance or no coverage at all, find out what the health care law means for you and your family. Join us to learn more about the law’s benefits and protections and new coverage options. This program is presented by Sarah Kelsea from the AARP.

The AARP is classified as a “Champion for Coverage” by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid and they do not get paid by anyone to offer this education.  Their goal is to provide unbiased and fact based information to people 50+ and their families so they will understand how to access the Health Insurance Marketplace if they need insurance and also, what impact the health care law has on those with Medicare and other forms of insurance.  You can find many AARP materials here: http://healthlawanswers.aarp.org

Open enrollment for the Affordable Care Act starts on October 1, 2013 and will continue until March 31, 2014. The website to enroll and find health insurance options is: www.healthcare.gov.  We encourage you to visit this website, become familiar with it and sign up for their e-mail updates.

Coverage can start as soon as January 1, 2014. For questions relating to enrollment call the Health Insurance Marketplace at 1-800-318-2596, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. (TTY: 1-855-889-4325). There will be foreign language interpreters available.

Plan to join us on Monday evening, October 7th,  from 6-8:15 PM to learn more about the new Health Care Law and how it will effect you and your family.
