WORKSHOP: EVERY ARTIST INSURED ON APRIL 21

WORKSHOP: EVERY ARTIST INSURED ON APRIL 21

Join NYFA and The Actors Fund for a Free Workshop

Struggling to make ends meet and unable to afford health insurance? Paying a tax penalty for being uninsured last year?  Wondering if you qualify for Medicaid? Think you missed your chance to enroll in low-cost or free health insurance? Maybe not!

Come to EVERY ARTIST INSURED!  This free workshop will provide you with clear guidance on what all your insurance options are, and answer all your burning questions! Open to anyone in visual, literary, or performing arts and entertainment.

Questions answered include:

Who can still enroll in insurance after open enrollment?
Am I eligible for free insurance?
Am I eligible for a subsidy to pay for insurance?
I don’t understand my coverage – can you help?
How do I decide what plan is right for me?
How much will it cost?
Where can I go to apply?

The Artists Health Insurance Resource Center (AHIRC) is an unbiased, non-profit program of The Actors Fund and does not sell insurance. Their Navigators help artists and entertainers understand all their options and help them enroll in coverage. Renata Marinaro, LMSW, Director of Eastern Region Health Services for The Actors Fund, will be available for individual consultations following the presentation.

When: Tuesday, April 21, 6:00 – 7:30 PM

Where: The Actors Fund, 729 7th Avenue (btw 48th and 49th St), 10th Floor, Conference Room A/B
