I used the word "congratulations" and an Oprah gif in my FB post today. Hopefully that helps boost viewership.

FYI because there isn't any federal funding for assisters or navigators, it is going to be a more difficult process for folks. The earlier the better to weigh your options! Also be aware that the "find help" option on healthcare.gov will list local insurance brokers up top, which is a much different arrangement than navigators. Oh, and if you don't select a new plan you'll be automatically re-enrolled in your previous plan. This could be a bad scenario if those plans saw increased premiums - many states baked increases into the premiums for silver plans, which make them basically the same cost as a gold plan with lesser benefits. Just lots of booby traps to be aware of this year! (Thanks, Trump.)

I did the FB thing too, and have been personally telling people whenever it's remotely relevant to the conversation.

I can't dwell on 45's sabotage too much though, for fear of a rage stroke.

I shared this on facebook as it talks about how to possible get cheaper coverage through the current marketplace and some things to remember for this year's enrollment.
