MONEY MATTERS with Christopher Hensley (Affordable Care Act )

"What changes do I need to know about before enrolling in health insurance for 2015?" Last year at this same time of the year I got certified for ACA enrollment to help people in enrolling in the new ACA exchange. Its hard to believe that a year has gone by since ACA rolled out. Open enrollment for the Affordable Healthcare Act begins Nov 15th 2014 - Feb 15th 2015 For 2015.

On todays show we were joined by Ben Geyerhahn. Ben is a member of New York Governor Cuomo's Health Benefit Exchange Advisory Committee and CEO of BeneStream.

On todays episode we answered those lingering questions you still have about the Affordable Care Act. Nothing in America is required by law for you to own. The Affordable Care act changes that statement on January 1st, 2014. You will be required by law to own health insurance on January 1st, 2014. If you cannot afford health insurance you will be subsidized. If you do not own health insurance you will be penalized. If you have questions or need help i am available.

We were joined by Lisa Zamosky, WebMD’s Health Reform Expert to assist us in answering questions about the new changes taking place on October 1st (Open Enrollment).

Over the next 3 months you will see one of the largest PR campaigns in this country's history promoting the Affordable Care Act. I spent 2 days out of my week last week getting certifed to be able to help people understand their options, apply for coverage and get enrolled.

Prior to this, I did not realize the amount of changes that were taking place. If you do not have health coverage in 2014 you will be penalized on your 2014 taxes. This affects indivduals and business's as well.

I am putting together a podcast show devoted to answering questions about the Affordable Care Act. Please email me at chensley@preceptwm.com any questions that you have about the Affordable Care Act and I will answer them for you on this episode.
