Northern Indiana Hispanic Health Coalition Fair
Ambetter from Managed Health Services is sponsoring a health fair and screening event hosted by the Northern Indiana Hispanic Health Coalition.
The health fair takes place from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Monday, Sept. 29, at St. John Catholic School, located at 117 W. Monroe St. in Goshen.
Ambetter from MHS will be onsite and present “How to Choose a Health Plan That Fits Your Needs and Your Budget!” This presentation will focus on explaining the healthcare laws, checking eligibility for financial assistance, answering questions and providing information to individuals and families on health insurance by Ambetter from MHS.
There will also be a number of free screenings offered, including screenings for cholesterol, glucose, blood pressure, body mass index, and oxygen saturation, among others. No appointments are necessary, and providers will be on hand to explain the results.
“Ambetter from MHS is excited to be participating in Indiana’s health insurance marketplace, and we want the local community to be educated about the Affordable Care Act and let them know about open enrollment for health coverage,” said Ambetter from MHS Chief Medical Officer Dr. Eric Yancy. “Our marketplace product Ambetter continues our mission of transforming the health of the community and will be the best choice for affordable healthcare. We hope to reach out to many individuals and their families through this partnership with the Northern Indiana Hispanic Health Coalition to show them what we have to offer through Ambetter from MHS.”
Open enrollment in the health insurance marketplace begins on Nov. 15. Ambetter from MHS will also have a booth at the health fair with giveaways and health-related and health insurance information. Better Is: Finding a health plan that fits your budget.
