Navigating health care reform for farmers and independent workers

Posted

LIBERTY, NY — Farmers and the general public are invited to attend a free workshop, Navigating Health Care Reform, offered by Cornell Cooperative Extension Sullivan County (CCESC) on Friday, November 14. Nicole Tapia, a bilingual health care navigator will present this educational opportunity for anyone confused about health care and the Affordable Care Act. The class will be held from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Gerald J. Skoda Extension Education Center.

This free workshop will help farmers and other independent workers to understand the Affordable Care Act and provide clear guidance on what options are available to them. The session includes a presentation, Q&A session and the chance to discuss personal options with the health navigator.

Questions to be covered include: What are the new options? How much will it cost me? Am I eligible for a subsidy? Who is eligible for the different types of insurance? How do I apply? Where do I get care if I can’t afford insurance?

Space is limited for this free workshop and pre-registration is required in advance. Call 845/292-6180 or email mm2592@cornell.edu.
