The Affordable Care Act’s (ACA) first open enrollment is here and health advocates will be busy working with states and partners to ensure that people understand their coverage options and are able to enroll in the right program for themselves and their families. As millions enter the new Marketplace and states and health advocates grapple with new Medicaid eligibility and income rules, questions will arise and NHeLP has answers. 

 

Medicaid Expansion Toolbox serves as a one-stop shop for all things related to the ACA’s Medicaid expansion, including resources state advocates can use to make the expansion happen in their state.

 

Open Enrollment Health Advocate provides an overview of the key issues advocates have on their radar as open enrollment moves forward. 

 

Q&A on the ACA’s Women’s Preventive Services provides answers to common questions about implementing the law’s requirement that health plans cover this set of critical preventive services.

 

Coming Soon! The Advocates Guide to MAGI is our new hands-on tool that helps advocates understand and apply new rules for counting income and family size to determine eligibility for Medicaid and subsidized health insurance through the Marketplace.
