health insurance

NJ FamilyCare expansion could make 24,000 kids who are undocumented immigrants eligible for health insurance. The federal government wouldn't help pay for it.

A record number of people, over 324,000, got health plans through Get Covered New Jersey in the regular open enrollment period this year.

More than 307,000 residents have signed up for health insurance through the state’s Get Covered New Jersey portal, helped by higher state subsidies.

A New Jersey Policy Perspective study says the state can do more to communicate with minority populations where health-care coverage rates still lag.

As if the government isn't putting enough pressure on people to get the COVID vaccine, now the insurance companies are coming up with another reason to sway you. Money.

More than half of adults nationwide who have health insurance coverage said they had gotten at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine as of mid-April, while only 30% with no health insurance said they had.

That cutoff is later than the deadline that residents have seen offered by the federal government in past years, now that the state's running its own shop for benefits.

The latest affront to taxpayers and small business owners is the borrowing of $14 billion which will lead to higher taxes.

Proponents of the $300 million tax plan say it's not a new tax but merely replaces one a federal one being repealed. Critics say a pandemic is not the time.

Loss of a job and health coverage is a life-changing event allowing for special enrollment in the marketplace. NJ FamilyCare could also be an option.
