October 03, 2013 04:45 PM

Local hospital officials and lawyers will offer a series of three public forums on the Affordable Care Act for people interested in signing up for subsidized insurance under the new healthcare law.

The free events, sponsored by UNC Health Care and Legal Aid of N.C., will include an opportunity for those in attendance to schedule a private consulation with a trained “navigator” to help with enrollment.

The forums, to be held in the Triangle and in Siler City, will go over the basic provisions of the Affordable Care Act, including subsidy qualifications, penalties, exemptions and basic elements of insurance, such as a premium, co-pay and deductible.

The first forum is scheduled tonight, Thursday, from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. in Room 100A at Rex Hospital, 4420 Lake Boone Trail, Raleigh.
