OBAMA HEALTHCARE EXTENSION TO ENROLL

Have you taken care of your medical insurance yet? If you are one of millions of Americans who have not enrolled in the Obama healthcare, you could get extra time to enroll .

The Health and Human Services Department posted two documents that detail ‘special enrollment periods” for those groups of people to access the new health insurance markets.

Those who have begun to apply for coverage on HealthCare.gov but who do not finish by Monday, 03/31 will now have until about mid-April to ask for an extension where coverage would take effect May 1.

Additionally,people in 10 general categories of special circumstances would also get an extension to apply- generally a 60-day period. The categories include exceptional circumstances such as natural disasters, system errors related to immigration status, computer error messages due to technical difficulties and situations involving domestic abuse, as well as other sorts of problems.
