People who had previously enrolled in Obamacare, or the Affordable Care Act (ACA), will benefit from being involved in their own healthcare to ensure that they are receiving the best insurance coverage. Open enrollment, available from November 1 to December 15, 2020, can be confusing; however, it is the only chance for participants to reevaluate the quality of their insurance coverage unless they experience a life-changing event, such as a job loss. People from Summit County to Portage County who are not sure where they can turn to find help deciphering the overwhelming amount of information can trust AxessPointe. They are taking appointments for enrollment assistance Monday through Friday between 8am and 4pm at the Kent, Arlington, and Barberton locations. This community health center offers free multi-lingual assistance with healthcare open enrollment forms, allowing people to be aware how their coverage of choice will affect everything from out-of-pocket expenses to preventative services — including mammograms, pregnancy and newborn care, behavioral health services, and prescription drug coverage.
Many insurance companies have done their part to help their clients through the pandemic by not increasing insurance rates for 2021, but healthcare plans don’t always roll over the same way into next year. Without updating information, the automatic renewal rate may be much higher. With 196,806 Ohioans relying on these government plans for coverage, the certified application counselors at AxessPointe can help them get the appropriate coverage for their circumstances. This federally qualified health center serving people from Rootstown to Akron not only offers free help with open enrollment forms, but they also provide access to affordable medical care with doctors who take Medicaid, Medicare, most private insurances, and the uninsured. They provide dental, women’s, children’s, and behavioral health; a reduced rate pharmacy; flu shots; COVID-19 testing; and more. Their actions prove that they believe healthcare is a basic human right by offering a sliding-fee scale based on family size and income … even on their virtual doctor visits.
Instead of being overwhelmed by the vast options of health insurance that exist, everyone in Portage County, Ohio; Summit County, Ohio; and beyond can trust AxessPointe to guide them with their free healthcare open enrollment form assistance. This community health center not only provides help negotiating the needs of each person’s healthcare coverage, but they also stand behind their mission with confidence by offering affordable medical care with in-person and virtual doctor visits.
