  • Gov. Wolf Encourages Health Care Coverage Enrollment on Pennie.Com, the State-Based Marketplace
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 14, 2020 View Online Gov. Wolf Encourages Health Care Coverage Enrollment on Pennie.com, the State-Based Marketplace Harrisburg, PA – Governor Tom Wolf held a virtual press conference today to highlight the work of the team behind Pennsylvania’s new state-based health insurance marketplace, known as Pennie, and to encourage Pennsylvanians to visit pennie.com for affordable coverage options. He was joined by Insurance Commissioner Jessica Altman, Human Services Secretary Teresa Miller and Pennie Executive Director Zachary Sherman. “I believe that all Pennsylvanians have the right to accessible, affordable, quality health care,” Gov. Wolf said. “Improving access to health care has been a priority for my administration from day one. With Pennie, Pennsylvania’s own health insurance marketplace, Pennsylvanians now have a one-stop shop for their health care coverage needs.” The Wolf Administration has made access to health care a priority from day one: • Expanded access to Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, opening up health coverage for hundreds of thousands of Pennsylvanians. • Signed legislation in July 2019 creating the state-based marketplace, now Pennie. • Advocated against any rollback of the ACA, which provides health coverage for more than 1 million Pennsylvanians. • Implemented collaborative and innovative programs to improve health care outcomes for Pennsylvanians, including a health care reform plan for Pennsylvania that will lower costs, and focus on improving accessibility, equity, and value of health care for all. • Participated in Get Covered Day on December 10 by issuing a proclamation and raising awareness to encourage Pennsylvanians who don’t have health coverage to go to pennie.com to explore their health care options.
