Oregonians who don’t have coverage through their employer have six weeks to sign up for health insurance. The open enrollment period began November 1st and runs through December 15th. The Oregon Health Insurance Marketplace is helping people find out where to apply and whether they might be eligible for financial assistance. It can also point people to local, in-person help. Marketplace communication manager Elizabeth Cronen says people should check their income eligibility, because getting that subsidy can bring down premiums. People who aren’t covered through their workplace could qualify for subsidies. The Oregon Health Insurance Marketplace can also guide people who are enrolling in the Oregon Health Plan, the state’s version of Medicaid.
