MADISON, Wis. (WRN) — Wisconsin residents are being urged to look at marketplace health insurance options.
Open Enrollment for marketplace health insurance in Wisconsin is now open, and Wisconsin Insurance Commissioner Nathan Houdek says it’s a good time to explore options amid the federal government shutdown. At the federal level there’s uncertainty about Affordable Care Act enhanced subsidies as they’re set to expire at the end of the year.
Houdek says if those subsidies are allowed to expire, many people will see their premiums go up. Houdek says people shouldn’t be waiting to look at their Open Enrollment options. More info can be found at healthcare.gov.
