As the final days of Open Enrollment for the Affordable Care Act (ACA) come to a close, CHC HealthCorps members and Wesleyan volunteers have collaborated with Community Health Center, Inc. to host a recognition event for both state officials and our own ACA staff members. Below are the details of the brunch event which is happening tomorrow from 11:45am-1pm in our Community Room. This event will also be the starting point for both AmeriCorps members & Wes volunteers on Saturday before they complete door-to-door outreach promoting the last days of insurance enrollment in New Britain. All event efforts and the agenda below have been facilitated by Sagar Parekh, one of CHC’s AmeriCorps members.

We will be recognizing Kevin Counihan and AccessHealthCT on their efforts in enrolling folks into health coverage. Discussion topics include the major factors that led to CT enrollment success, the plan post March 31st, and how we plan to help other states through selling the “exchange in a box” method, etc.
