More Michigan consumers than ever are
faced with having to make difficult health insurances choices – many for the
first time. Through a series of free, unbiased educational programs, Michigan
State University Extension hopes to help people make smart health insurance
decisions for themselves and their families.
To help people understand the confusing and complex health
insurance landscape, MSU Extension is hosting a series of weekly “Smart Choice”
educational webinars and launching a new website to explain insurances changes.
The classes are free and open to the public. A current list of upcoming webinars
can be found at aca.msue.msu.edu.
Webinars are currently held every Monday from 3 to 5 p.m. and from 6 to 8 p.m.
through March 31.
Organizations that provide health or community assistance,
or employers looking to provide education for their employees can also contact
MSU Extension directly at healthinsurance@anr.msu.edu
and request information about setting up an in-person training session.

Health Insurance Marketplace, and how both affect the people, families and
businesses in Michigan, visit aca.msue.msu.edu.
