HHS to job-seekers: Got ObamaCare?
The job search site Monster.com has begun sharing ObamaCare success stories as part of a new partnership with the federal government to help spur healthcare sign-ups.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced the partnership Wednesday, alongside several other tech platforms, to reach wider audiences during its second year of open enrollment.
{mosads}One post features a 28-year-old Alaskan woman named Susan Shain, who has bounced between jobs and is now a travel blogger.
“To me, health insurance is like freedom,” she writes, adding. “It’s a pretty cool feeling when they ask you ‘Do you have insurance?’ and you get to say yes.”
She calls the government’s HealthCare.gov website “easy to use” and also touts the benefits of preventative care like yearly check-ups.
Another is written by an HHS official, citing the story of a 52-year-old woman who isn’t offered healthcare with her current job and finds a plan through ObamaCare instead.
“Even while you may be going through difficult times, you can have the security and peace of mind that comes with affordable health insurance,” writes Rhett Buttle, HHS director of private sector engagement.
The partnerships come about a week after HHS announced it would partner with another tech company that will help promote ObamaCare on some 7-Eleven receipts.
