There’s Still Time to Get Insured

February 1, 2014 / Madeline Schroeder / Health & Wellness, National Issues, State Issues / No Comments

Have you signed up for health insurance yet? Connect For Health Colorado (ConnectForHealthCo.com) is the state website to sign up for health insurance through the exchange. Enrollment ends March 31. All Americans must have health insurance by then or they pay a fee ($95 OR 1 percent of your income—whichever is greater—in the first year). Picking the right plan and signing up can be a daunting task, but there are many resources to ease the process, including the Front Porch Guide to Health Care. It’s getting easier all the time, according to Cheryl Fleetwood, Stapleton resident and assistant director for the Central Presbyterian Church Health Assistance Site.

Connect For Health Colorado established 55 certified health assistance centers around the state. At no cost, Affordable Care Act-certified guides go over health care options, answer any questions, educate about the exchange and assist in enrolling. By appointment, they also go to small businesses and churches to give presentations about health care options. They can provide mobile enrollment on-site. There are several in-person assistance sites nearby:
