Its diversified businesses serve group customer and individual needs across the United States through dental insurance and other related businesses.

Local Spotlight is joined by Mike Pelino, Director Market Strategy & Analytics, Federal Markets at Highmark.

He explains that open enrollment for the Affordable Care Act (ACA) provides an opportunity for people who don't get health insurance through work or another government program, like Medicare or Medicaid, to choose high-quality, low-cost coverage. ACA open enrollment runs through January 15, 2025, so the deadline to sign up is fast approaching.

The ACA has a plan for every lifestyle and need... from young adults leaving their parents' health coverage, to older Americans transitioning from employer-based insurance to millions of entrepreneurs just looking for a good health plan for a good price.
