In just a couple of weeks the curtain goes up on the new health insurance plans for individuals and families under the Affordable Care Act, aka, Obamacare. The website you want to visit is http://www.wahbexchange.org
It may seem counter-intuitive to refer you to
Washington Healthplanfinder, our state’s online exchange marketplace.
You may be thinking: “Why would Richard tell me to go there when he sells health insurance?”
The reason is that sending people to the Healthplanfinder can benefit them and you. Here’s why.
As
part of the ACA, many individuals will qualify for financial help from
the government with their premiums. A family of three can earn up to 400
percent of the federal poverty level, or $78,120, and still be entitled
to some financial assistance. But the only place that they can get that
financial assistance is through Washington Healthplanfinder.
If
you believe you may be in an income category that qualifies
for help, it's worth having a conversation about your
options. I encourage you to use the online calculator to help determine whether you may qualify.
If you do qualify for assistance and choose to buy your health plan through Healthplanfinder, keep me in mind and use the FIND AN AGENT/PRODUCER tab. I am certified to sell health plans inside the exchange and can even help you enroll no matter where you live in Washington. You can find me by name - RICHARD EK - or by zip code -98208.
Feel free to mention this to family or friends that live in Washington State. Or, have them call me at 425-338-1000 or contact me by email Richard@ekandek.com
