Help Navigating the HealthCare Marketplace

by | Dec 13, 2022

WCAP partners with CoverME.gov to provide navigator services for the Maine HealthCare Marketplace. The Marketplace is a way to find health coverage that fits your budget and meets your needs. Through the Marketplace, you can access quality health plans, make apples-to-apples comparisons between different options, and access tax credits that could lower your monthly premiums right away.

While there is no longer a penalty if you don’t have insurance, open enrollment is November 1 – December 15 every year. Special enrollments are available year-round for qualifying life events that result in loss of coverage.

Our Resource Advocate Navigators provide free, unbiased, confidential assistance by phone, zoom or in person throughout Waldo County. If you have any questions regarding your coverage or need assistance with enrolling, please contact a Navigator at Waldo CAP by calling 207-338-6809 for an appointment.
