If you need health insurance and you want health insurance (and you'll avoid tax penalties if you HAVE health insurance), come to the Cliff Hagan Boys and Girls Club at 3415 Buckland Square in Owensboro this Tuesday afternoon, December 9th.

Here's why.

That afternoon, from 2:30 to 6:30, several agencies will be on hand conducting a health insurance sign-up event.

If you need to enroll in a health insurance program, please bring income verification (including your most recent tax returns and check stubs from the last 2 months), general household information, incarceration release records (if this applies), proof of legal residency, health insurance cards, and social security numbers.

The open enrollment period under the Affordable Care Act ends February 15, 2015 and this assistance is provided for those 64 years of age or younger. Those 65 and older are eligible for Medicare.

Unless more complex household issues arise, a typical meeting lasts about 30 minutes.
