    002. MARKETPLACE-SPECIAL ENROLLMENT PERIOD

    On this episode of HealthSource of Ohio's More Than Medicine Podcast, we're joined by HSO's Director of Outreach, Becky McMullen. Becky discusses the current Marketplace Special Enrollment Period and how her team can assist consumers as they navigate the Marketplace.   Please note that there have been some changes since our original recording: The current administration is extending access to the Special Enrollment Period until August 15th.  “Every American deserves access to quality, affordable health care – especially as we fight back against the COVID-19 pandemic,” said HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra. “Through this Special Enrollment Period... the American have the chance they need to find an affordable health care plan that works for them. The American Rescue Plan will bring costs down for millions of Americans, and I encourage consumers to visit HealthCare.gov and sign up for a plan before August 15.” As a result of the American Rescue Plan, additional savings will be available for consumers through HealthCare.gov starting April 1. These savings will decrease premiums for many.  On average, one out of four enrollees on HeathCare.gov will be able to upgrade to a higher plan category that offers better out of pocket costs at the same or lower premium compared to what they’re paying today. For assistance with exploring you coverage options and enrolling in coverage for 2021, please call our Outreach and Enrollment Team at 513.707.9901 to schedule an appointment.
