Officials with the Cass County Health System says enrollment for Healthcare Marketplace Exchange consumers will open on November 1st and help is available through regional ACA (Affordable Care Act) Navigators. ACA Navigators work one-on-one with individuals to complete enrollment, weigh options, and answer questions on Marketplace plans and Medicaid.

All prior year’s enrollees are strongly encouraged to meet with the ACA Navigator to update information and review new plans available on the healthcare.gov. To have coverage in effect January 1, 2016, you will need to set an appointment prior to December 15th, 2015.

All meetings with the Navigators are by appointment, and they are private. Consumers are asked to bring important information with them, such as addresses, social security numbers, income information, and policy numbers for any current health insurance plans for all members of the household. Also, if a prior enrollee in the Marketplace, bring your login information to access your account during your appointment.

The private appointments will be held at Cass County Health System in Conference Rooms 6 and 2, which are easily accessible from Parking Lot C. For more information or to make an appointment, please call either Melissa Namanny at 712-243-2850 ext. 4111 or Val Gifford at 712-243-3250 ext. 3417.
