health equity, and health care for Washtenaw's low-income, uninsured,
underinsured, and underrepresented populations.

Fueled by funds that made plans more affordable, the special enrollment period also offered extra time for folks to sign up for health insurance in 2021. While enrollment is up, MMOE's co-chairs note that keeping people insured and engaged is an ongoing effort. MMOE plans to focus outreach efforts in local communities that continue to have higher uninsurance rates.

The COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE) has helped the health and wellbeing of low-income individuals through extra benefits. However, it's impending end could also mean the end of that assistance. At May's WHI Steering Committee meeting, several health and human service leaders discussed potential concerns for their clients.
