Pisgah Legal Services Assists in Affordable Care Act Sign-Ups

Pisgah Legal Services (PLS) is continuing to help people sign up for the Affordable Care Act before the deadline on Friday, December 15th.

PLS Managing Attorney Jaclyn Kiger says, “We want to make sure everyone who wants health insurance has a chance to come in and take advantage of the free in-person assistance before the enrollment deadline on December 15th. Many people are getting financial assistance to make their plans affordable and in some cases they see better deals this year than in the past.”

The Affordable Care Act is still the law and consumers can shop the Marketplace during the shortened Open Enrollment period to select 2018 coverage. Time is running out as plan selections have to be made by December 15th in order to get quality, affordable coverage for 2018. Financial assistance is still available. Free, in-person help right here in Western North Carolina is available. Appointments can be made by calling toll-free: 855-733-3711 or make an appointment online at www.pisgahlegal.org.
