Here we are, close to the closing of the "Open Enrollment" period for the ACA (Affordable Care Act) and we receive more information from the Administration ...

I will preface this information with:

This too can change at any time

As you may know, the Open Enrollment period is ending on March 31 deadline for change for a May 1, 2014 effective date. You realize that after this date, you

must have a qualifying event to enroll in an insurance plan

So what is a qualifying event?

A significant life chance, such as:

  • Lose your job
  • Change job and lose your insurance
  • You get married
  • You have a baby

So NOW is a really good time to make the jump or dive in and buy health insurance. If you do that, you will be in line with the law and the mandate, which states,

"Everyone must have insurance or pay a penalty."

Health Care Reform – OBAMA Care

September 26th, 2013 by Marie DeWolf

The law was passed in 2010 and now it will become law on January 1, 2014 - As of January 1, 2014 there is an INDIVIDUAL MANDATE – which means that everyone has to enroll in a health insurance plan.

The new law, will allow individuals to go to the Health Care Marketplace. The Marketplace is designed to help you find health insurance that meets your needs and fits your budget. The Marketplace offers “one-stop shopping” to find and compare private health insurance options. You may also be eligible for a new kind of tax credit that lowers your monthly premium right away. Open enrollment for health insurance coverage through the Marketplace begins in October 2013 for coverage starting as early as January 1, 2014.

You may qualify to save money and lower your monthly premium, but only if your employer does not offer coverage, or offers coverage that doesn’t meet certain standards. The savings on your premium that you’re eligible for depends on your household income.
