Geisinger Commonwealth School of Medicine held an Affordable Care Act registration event Saturday but no one from the public attended, said second-year medical student Laina Gagliardi.
She was among several students who stood ready to assist people in filling out forms or navigating insurance coverage options and purchasing.
The open enrollment period for health care coverage for 2020 has been underway for a few weeks and has a Dec. 15 deadline for signup.
Anyone needing assistance in filling out forms or selecting an appropriate health care insurance plan, or who may have questions about Medicare income eligibility guidelines, may email the medical school students at pcpatgsom@gmail.com.
