Today CMS announced a new Special Enrollment Period to help people (in states) who lose Medicaid during unwinding transition to marketplace coverage. Great news to cap off a banner week for the #ACA marketplace!

And the Administration should continue to find ways to reduce barriers to enrollment and to increase assistance for those who need it.

A8: In states, check out the new “easy pricing” plans (there’s a filter) to compare plans with the same cost sharing rules. Then you can focus on the premium, provider network, and quality ratings, not complex cost-sharing rules. #TodaysVoicesTues
Q8: People with work or student coverage often don’t have a lot of choices when it comes to plans offered to them, but the marketplace is different. What are some pointers for people new to shopping for coverage? What should they consider? #TodaysVoicesTues

A7: People should act by Dec 15 to make sure their coverage starts Jan 1. Open enrollment lasts thru Jan 15, but for plan selections after Dec 15, coverage doesn’t start until Feb 1. Act early to get covered for the full year! #TodaysVoicesTues #GetCovered
Q7: This time of year, people are looking ahead to the holidays. Should people shop for coverage now or can it wait until January? #TodaysVoicesTues

@YoungInvincible A1: Also important for the ~250k new folks who picked a plan on the marketplace last year to return to the marketplace to update their info. Plans and prices change every year. #TodaysVoicesTues #GetCovered
