Covered California Storefront
Affordable Health Insurance
Fresno, Ca (PRWEB) October 31, 2016
Covered California’s open enrollment begins Nov. 1, 2016 and runs through Jan. 31, 2017. This is the time for individuals and families to sign up for affordable health insurance. Covered California offers financial assistance that can help reduce health care costs. Having health insurance brings peace of mind, and by signing up by Dec 15 individuals and families can be covered for all of 2017.
Covered California is the only place where individuals and families can get financial assistance to help pay for their health insurance. Last Year, nine out of 10 enrollees qualified for some level of financial help and more than 120,000 enrollees paid less than $10. per month per individual. Covered California offers a range of plans so that consumers can choose the health plan and level of coverage that best meets their needs and budgets. To see how much financial assistance you may receive go to http://www.covered-fresno.com.
In addition, many Californians could qualify for Medi-Cal, allowing for no out-of-pocket costs or low-cost health coverage for low-income Californians. Medi-Cal is health coverage, just like the coverage from Covered California.
Health insurance can be complicated. Californians that need health coverage can get confidential assistance from one of the more than 28,000 individuals in California who are ready to help them enroll. Enrollees can begin by finding confidential in-person help from a Certified Insurance Agent at http://www.covered-fresno.com.
Covered California Enrollment Centers allow individuals a place to obtain assistance at no charge by phone or in person from a certified health insurance agent. In preparation for what is expected to be a very busy enrollment period, Mark Svetlik, agency director for the Covered California Fresno Enrollment Center has hired additional staff, and upgraded its computers and software to handle the expected surge in enrollment during this open enrollment period. The goal is to help make selecting and purchasing a policy or signing up for Medi-Cal as simple as possible.
