How Health Care Reform Affects You
How you buy your health insurance may be changing. Your coverage may be changing as well.
More changes are coming in 2014 under the health care reform law. You probably have questions about what these changes mean for you.
We can help.
We have information and resources to help you understand the changes. Whether you are insured, uninsured or underinsured, individual coverage for 2014 and beyond may be purchased through something called a health insurance exchange. This is a new, online government-run marketplace for comparing and buying health insurance plans.
Feel overwhelmed? Take a look at the tools and resources below. They can help you understand your options.
