The Employers Association of NJ is a nonprofit employer organization and in partnership with the Community Health Law Project has received a federal grant to act as a navigator under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Meetings for employers are being held throughout the state-with one scheduled in Lakewood at Preferred Behavioral Health on Wednesday, December 3-in an effort to help them guide their uninsured employees to navigators so they can purchase insurance through the marketplace. Open enrollment for Plan Year 2015 is November 15, 2014 – February 15, 2015. The meetings will cover:

Who is eligible for coverage in the marketplace to purchase a health insurance policy (individual or family coverage)
Eligibility for coverage under NJ Family Care
How employers can get trained counselors to assist their workers with enrollment.

There are no costs for attending these meetings and more information can be found at the website, www.getworkerscovered.org.

The event will take place Wednesday, December 3, 2014, 9am-11am at Preferred Behavioral Health, 725 Airport Rd, Lakewood, NJ 08701.
