Consumer Information for January 1
As the start of coverage for Qualified Health Plans approaches, CMS anticipates that some of the newly insured individuals will have questions about how to access healthcare services. CMS has posted information on Marketplace.cms.gov to address questions that consumers may have with the January 1 start of coverage through their selected health plan. Individuals who have insurance for the first time or have new plans beginning on January 1 are likely to have many questions related to coverage, premiums payments, co-payments, and other issues and may need to reach their individual insurance plan. Below is information for consumers on how to access their health plans as well as education factsheets explaining how health insurance works.
