Important new information has recently been released that a Special Enrollment Period for health insurance under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) will begin Feb. 15, 2021, and end May 15, 2021. During this special enrollment, you can sign up for a comprehensive health insurance plan that provides basic and major medical coverage.

The Special Enrollment Period was created Jan. 28, 2021, by executive order of President Biden and allows additional access to purchase comprehensive health insurance coverage.

The ACA, also known as "Obamacare," and the health insurance industry are ever-changing. Now is a good time to review your current health coverage to see if it still fits your needs.

Also, now would be an excellent time to consider your estate planning needs as well.  We typically tell our clients that the best times to revisit or reconsider their estate planning documents are at significant stages of their lives (i.e. marriage, divorce, birth, or death).  Additionally, we encourage our clients to review their estate planning documents when there are significant changes to the law or during major societal events.

We encourage you and your loved ones to review, and update if it is necessary, your estate planning documents.  If you do not yet have any estate planning documents, we would encourage you to move forward with them at this time. 

Anyone over the age of eighteen (18) should have the basic estate planning documents of a Last Will & Testament, Durable / Financial Power of Attorney, Healthcare Power of Attorney, and Living Will.

We would appreciate the opportunity to discuss your estate planning needs with you, and we stand ready to assist you in your current and future needs.  Please feel free to contact one of our attorneys for a free consultation at 614-670-8103, or visit us at www.dsflawfirm.com.
