If you or someone you care about does not have health insurance, it’s not too late to sign up for quality affordable coverage: But you’ll want to act today. The deadline to get insurance is March 31. After that, you’ll have to wait until November 2014 to sign up.
Many of the people I’ve met have told me they were surprised at just how affordable marketplace insurance can be. Here in Chattanooga, a family of four earning $50,000 a year can get covered for as little as $136 per month. A 27-year-old earning $25,000 can get covered for as little as $105 per month.
Security and peace of mind are just a click or call away. You may even find that you’re eligible for assistance to lower the cost of your premium.
You can sign up 24 hours a day, seven days a week at HealthCare.gov (which is working smoothly) or at 1-800-318-2596. You can even get in-person help in your own community: Just visit localhelp.healthcare.gov and enter your ZIP code. If you are a Spanish speaker, you can access our Spanish language website at CuidadoDeSalud.gov and you can get in-person help in Spanish, too.
So don’t delay. Join the 5 million Americans who have already signed up for a plan.
