In Delaware, 38,000 residents are eligible for no-cost health insurance due to the American Rescue Plan, the federal government’s $1.9 trillion COVID-19-relief bill.
In addition to the roughly 18,000 current enrollees, 20,000 uninsured adults can sign up for health coverage with no monthly premiums.
“We’re delivering lower health care costs to more Delawareans because everyone deserves access to quality, affordable health care,” Xavier Becerra, secretary of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, said in a prepared statement.
“We are encouraging uninsured Delawareans and current marketplace enrollees to visit healthcare.gov to see if they qualify for enhanced financial assistance to purchase quality, affordable health coverage,” he said.
