Although 54,000 Missourians have selected Missouri Health
Insurance Marketplace plans, thousands more are still without coverage despite
the March 31 deadline to obtain health insurance or pay a fine.
The Cover Missouri Coalition is working hard to change this
through education efforts that ensure Missourians understand their coverage
options in the Marketplace. Throughout March, Coalition members in the greater
St. Louis area will be actively answering questions and educating the public
about the Marketplace, hosting enrollment sessions, and offering extended
office hours for certified application counselors (CACs).
In total, there are nearly 90 events across the state –
including one in St. Louis.
