The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has announced an extension of the deadline to enroll in health insurance coverage that begins Jan. 1, 2025, for Marketplace consumers in Alabama. These consumers now have an additional three days — until midnight local time Wednesday, Dec. 18, 2024 (no later than 4 a.m. Central on Thursday, Dec. 19) — to secure a full year of coverage for 2025. The Mobile County Health Department and Family Health, its primary care division, have Certified Application Counselors ready to assist at every location. The counselors have been trained and are able to help consumers as they look for health coverage options through the Health Insurance Exchange. They can assist consumers in completing eligibility and enrollment forms. Assistance by the Certified Application Counselors is free to consumers. Certified Application Counselors can be found at all Family Health centers conveniently located throughout Mobile County. You may visit https://lnkd.in/eYVZQauh for a list of sites or call directly at 251-445-8632 for the Patient Assistance Department.
