A 9405 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to entities who serve as navigators that can help individuals apply for health insurance

This bill authorizes New York's state health insurance marketplace to award annual grants to organizations that help residents apply for health insurance. It creates three specific grant programs: funding certified navigators (who assist individuals), community enrollment programs, and certifying licensed insurance agents to help low-income residents and small businesses. Priority funding is directed to New York City and counties with uninsured rates above the state average for people earning under 400% of the federal poverty level. The grants must follow federal rules and require annual state budget appropriations.
