The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services announced that an additional $2.3 million is being made available to Navigator grantees to continue Marketplace enrollment efforts during the 2021 special enrollment period. The SEP will run through Saturday, May 15. Acting Deputy Administrator Jeff Wu stated, “President Biden has made clear that every American deserves access to quality, affordable health care. Navigators help Americans understand their health insurance options, connecting consumers with financial help, and help them enroll in Marketplace plans, Medicaid or CHIP. During a public health emergency, it is critical for consumers to have access to assistance with finding affordable, comprehensive health coverage that best fits their needs.”
