It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!


I’m not talking about Christmas – I am talking about Open Enrollment in the Marketplace.

Open Enrollment for plans starting January 1, 2015 began on November 15. I LOVE helping people enroll in a healthcare plan – whether it is through the Marketplace or helping them enroll in the Healthy Michigan Plan – Michigan’s expanded Medicaid.

It brings me such joy to see people finally be able to afford and enroll in healthcare. Some of the people I am working with this year are re-enrolling. I love hearing the stories of how having insurance changed their lives – how they were finally able to have some long-needed surgery, or see a specialist that they could not afford before.

It is exciting to see people enrolled for the first time. I love teaching them about how insurance works, what their options are and showing them how their tax subsidies will make the insurance affordable for them.

This year, the clinic is once again providing individuals and families with a place to come enroll in healthcare with the assistance of Certified Application Counselors. Connie and I both completed the training for both the Marketplace and to assist in enrollment for the Healthy Michigan Plan.

Give us a call – see if we can help you!
