Health coverage options for Ohioans without access to affordable employer-sponsored health insurance will change significantly in 2014. Open enrollment for Ohio’s federally facilitated marketplace begins Oct. 1, 2013, for coverage beginning Jan. 1, 2014. Ohio’a decision to expand Medicaid, combined with the introduction of an online eligibility and enrollment system, also will dramatically change the way Medicaid coverage is accessed in 2014.
This forum explored questions such as:
- What are the new coverage options and who is eligible?
- What consumer assistance programs are in place to help consumers?
- What messaging and outreach strategies work?
- How can organizations get involved in this work?
