If anyone has connections with other libraries in NC, perhaps the same concept can be duplicated.
The Chapel Hill Public Library is partnering with area organizations to provide a "sign-up hub" for the Affordable Care Act. The library will offer regular sessions in their enclosed computer lab for residents to meet one-on-one with Certified Application Counselors. Reservations and walk-ins will be available during these free, regularly scheduled sessions. Call the library at 919-968-2780 for session times, reservations, and to find out what information to bring in order to get signed up with a healthcare plan.
Librarian Shannon Bailey notes, "Citizens turn to their libraries as a trusted resource and the Chapel Hill Public Library is committed to connecting patrons with the information and resources they need in order to sign up for health insurance." In addition to sign up sessions, the library will be hosting informational programs to provide an overall understanding of the Affordable Care Act. The next program, presented by the League of Women Voters of Orange Durham-Chatham will be at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 4, at the library in Meeting Room A.
The Chapel Hill Public Library is partnering with UNC Healthcare, the League of Women Voters of Orange-Durham-Chatham, Planned Parenthood of Central North Carolina, and UNC's Student Health Action Coalition.
