Affordable Health Insurance Enrollment Training to be held on Thursday, April 25


April is national Minority Health Month and in recognition of this year’s theme, Advance Health Equity Now: Uniting our Communities to Bring Health Care Coverage to All, the Utah Dept of Health Office of Health Disparities (OHD) is hosting a training about how to enroll individuals in affordable health insurance.  The Affordable Care Act (ACA) open enrollment period begins October 1st, 2013 along with the requirement that all Utahns have health insurance by 2014.

In order to help you and your agency prepare for the road ahead, OHD has invited Randall Serr, Director of Take Care Utah, to provide step-by-step instructions through the enrollment process.  He will be discussing eligibility requirements, necessary documentation, authorization requirements and others items.  The presentation will be held on Thursday, April 25 from 10:00 to 11:30 a.m. at the Highland Building located at 3760 South Highland Drive in Salt Lake City, in room 425.  

If you or members of your organization serve the underinsured or uninsured, we urge you to take advantage of this free training opportunity. For additional information or to RSVP, contact Christine Espinel at cespinel@utah.gov or call 801-273-4137.
