Enroll America Starts Get Covered America Program

Enroll America, a backer of the Affordable Care Act, formally launched its Get Covered America program in a bid to educate millions of Americans about their insurance options – the beginning of next year.

“We are at a place where…78% of the uninsured aren’t even aware of what’s coming their way,” said Anne Filipic, the president of Enroll America who joined the organization earlier this year after previously working in the White House. “Our goal is to change that number.”
