Open Enrollment takes place November 1 – January 15, 2024. During this time, you can explore the various health insurance options that are available to you. It’s a time to evaluate your current healthcare needs and choose a plan that best suits your lifestyle and budget.
In June, BHT and a number of our community partners got together to pre-enroll folks in need into the Apple Health Expansion program. Due to limited funding, the available spaces filled up in less than 48 hours, however BHT and Community Partners had the honor of enrolling over 990 individuals in Eastern Washington!
Apple Health Expansion provides free healthcare coverage for adults age 19 and older with certain immigration statuses, including undocumented community members.
Have you previously applied for Washington Apple Health and were denied due to immigration status? You may be eligible for Apple Health Expansion! Applying for Apple Health is always free and does not impact immigration status.
Open Enrollment season is upon us! During Open Enrollment, individuals and families can check their insurance coverage options, compare health plans, and enroll in health insurance coverage for 2024. Our navigators can help you compare your health coverage options and enroll!
