In their continued effort to provide key information to the community regarding the Affordable Care Act (ACA), the Black Health Coalition of Wisconsin (BHCW) will be hosting another community forum on Wednesday, October 23, 2013 from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m. at BHCW, 3020 W. Vliet Street. The event is free and open to the public.
Representatives from the four Milwaukee Marketplace Health Exchange insurance providers will participate on a panel and answer attendee questions. The Qualified Health Plans (QHPs) are Common Ground Healthcare Corp, Compcare Health Services Ins. Corp., Molina Healthcare of WI, Inc., and WPS Health Plan, Inc. (Arise). The community is welcome to attend and get questions answered for themselves and their families.
BHCW encourages the community to keep in mind the important ACA dates; the initial enrollment period for ACA will end March 31, 2014. Qualifying individuals who enroll through the Marketplace by December 15, 2013 can begin receiving health coverage in January 2014.
