Millions are looking for agents’ help: find them!
Assistance for ACA Enrollment Lacking
Just 18% of those looking for help found someone to guide them
By Emily Payne – BenefitsPro – August 13, 2020
This year, an unprecedented number of people who lost their employer-sponsored health coverage will be turning to the Affordable Care Act marketplace for a new plan. Many are on their own when shopping for coverage: a recent study from the Kaiser Family Foundation found just 18% of those looking to enroll or renew coverage in the ACA were able to find assistance to help them through the process, while 1-in-8 wanted help, but were unable to find any. Health insurance is confusing, and recent changes to the ACA have only added to the mess. According to the report, many consumers are unsure if the ACA is still in effect, and don’t know if they’re eligible or what the enrollment dates are. Of those seeking assistance in enrollment, 62% said they don’t understand the options, and 52% fear the enrollment process is too complicated.
