Week Ahead 11/2-11/8: Affordable Care Act Enrollment Events

The Affordable Care Act’s third health insurance open enrollment period began yesterday, November 1. To assist Floridians with getting covered, the Epilepsy Foundation of Florida (EFOF) will once again hold open office hours and special events throughout the coming week.

EFOF, a state licensed and federally certified provider of in-person help for those wanting to shop and enroll in the Health Insurance Marketplace, received a $1.85 million federal grant in September from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to provide enrollment assistance.

EFOF has been an assistance provider in every Affordable Care Act enrollment period, and has educated and assisted more than 105,000 Floridians at 4,000 events in 35 counties. More than 15,000 consumers have received in-person enrollment assistance, including more than 7,500 consumers speaking languages other than English.

The below events are free and open to the public. Outreach and education events are underlined. Floridians can also call toll-free to schedule an appointment, at 1-877-553-7453.
