We've got some terrific news to share with you!   Almost 900,000 Floridians have now signed up for coverage through the Affordable Care Act (ACA) Marketplace.  December 15th at midnight was the deadline but the overwhelming demand has resulted in the deadline being moved to 11:59pm on Monday, December 19th.  Please share this important news with your friends, family and neighbors who might still be uncovered for 2017.

Also, U.S. Health and Human Services has released a compilation of state-level data illustrating the improvements in health care for all Americans. The uninsured rate has fallen by 38% in Florida since the ACA was enacted. Highlighted in the report is the fact that over 1.5 million Floridians now have coverage through the Marketplace, with no discrimination based on pre-existing conditions and tax credits available to help individuals pay for the coverage.  Please read and share this important news too!

If you need information on the Marketplace and signing up for coverage, call 877-813-9115 today (and before Monday night's new deadline for coverage beginning January 1st!)
