On Tuesday, November 1, Massachusetts Health Connector ‘Coverage Crews’ led a business walk through the city of East Boston holding conversations and placing window signs to raise awareness about upcoming Open Enrollment. The ‘Coverage Crews’ will include Health Connector officials, State Representative Adrian C. Madaro and City Councilor Gabriela Coletta, local navigators, and community leaders discussing low-or-no-cost plans available with enhanced federal subsidies. East Boston is one of the Health Connector’s priority communities due to its young, diverse population with among the state’s highest rates of uninsurance. Individuals can now sign up for health insurance policies through the Health Connector. This will be the first year following the COVID-19 pandemic to feature a full, in-person enrollment campaign. Residents can sign up for coverage at www.MAhealthconnector.org, over the phone at 1-877-MA-ENROLL, or through local walk-in centers that have again re-opened. Shown are members of the Massachusetts Health Connector team let out a cheer for Channel 25 News in front of Sonny Carlo’s.
