SUMMARY:Medicaid and Marketplace Outreach and Enrollment (MMOE) Work Group
DESCRIPTION:Members of the Washtenaw Health Initiative’s Medicaid/Marketplace Outreach and Enrollment work group meet monthly to discuss ongoing work. RSVP to attend.\nIn recent years\, the federal government has made substantial changes to the funding and organization of outreach\, education\, and enrollment activities for the Health Insurance Marketplace. These changes have made recent open enrollment periods shorter\, have reduced funding for advertising open enrollment\, and have reduced funding for staff at local organizations that provide enrollment assistance. The Medicaid and Marketplace Outreach and Enrollment Work Group has focused on ensuring that these barriers don’t prevent vulnerable populations in Washtenaw County from applying for the health insurance they require.\nAs the state prepares for Medicaid work requirements\, which go into effect in January 2020\, the Medicaid and Marketplace Outreach and Enrollment work group will ensure that those who qualify for the Healthy Michigan Plan know when and how to take action\, receive assistance with exemption applications\, and have the ongoing support they need to maintain coverage.

SUMMARY:2019 Open Enrollment Event
DESCRIPTION:Last year\, the national uninsured rate increased for the first time  since the Affordable Care Act was passed in 2010. Approximately 2 million Americans and 25\,000 Michiganders lost health insurance coverage between 2017 and 2018. In light of these loss of coverage trends\, as well as Michigan’s pending work requirements\, this year’s open enrollment activities will take on new significance as the WHI’s Medicaid and Marketplace Outreach and Enrollment (MMOE) Group works to ensure that Washtenaw County residents enroll and stay enrolled.\nEnrollment volunteers from Michigan Medicine\, the St. Joseph Mercy Health System\, and the Washtenaw Health Plan will be on hand to help individuals navigate and complete Medicaid and Marketplace applications on the following dates: \n\nNovember 7\, Washtenaw Community College (all are welcome)\nNovember 20\, Eastern Michigan University (all are welcome)\nNovember 20\, University of Michigan (for U-M students)\n\nTo make an appointment\, contact Fatu Kamara at fkamara@med.umich.edu.
