The HealthLinc Coffee Talks provide an opportunity for individuals to learn about the Affordable Care Act and how the law affects them and their loved ones.  Certified application counselors will be on hand to help people enroll in the Health Insurance Marketplace and help them find out if they qualify for subsidies that offset the cost of insurance coverage. 

There will be two HealthLinc Coffee Talks at the North Judson-Wayne Township Library on Monday, January 27th; a morning session from 10 a.m to 12:30 p.m. and an afternoon session from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.

• Social Security Number or document numbers for legal immigrants
• Employer, tax and income information for every member of your household who needs coverage, i.e. pay stubs, W-2 forms
• Policy numbers for any current health insurance plans covering members of your household (if applicable)
• A completed Employer Coverage Tool form available at https://www.healthcare.gov/downloads/ECT_Application_508_130615.pdf for every job-based plan you or someone in your household is eligible for.  This includes coverage you are eligible for, but do not enroll in.
