I signed up for Obamacare last year and have had it ever since. I am on Horizon, NJ health. Do I have to re-enroll in insurance to keep it? Or do I just keep it?
I totally agree, the Affordable Care Act is the name that should be used…. the problem is that many only know the term ObamaCare. On our site we try to reach people with the term they know and then help them to learn about what the Affordable Care Act really is. It is a bit of a balancing act.
Remember it was those who opposed the ACA who used the term “ObamaCare” initially, a ploy to get people to associate Obama with healthcare reform to make it easier to turn conservatives against the law. Their strategy worked rather well, and certainly a complex situation was created.
We have been able to reach countless people due to their buzzword, but I fear that attempts to break to cognitive barrier and get people to see that the underlying ACA was actually a good thing have not been as successful as I’d once optimistically hoped.
I need medical attention I have cops, and enphazema. I need a doctor. But I believe my coverage has ended. In April I only had it for a year and I haven’t received anything in the mail
Contacting a public hospital is always a good bet, if it is an emergency just show up. Otherwise sometimes Medicaid is an option, you can contact the state Medicaid department for that. For all else, try starting with Healthcare.gov and contacting them.
