in affordable, quality, health coverage during the 2021 Marketplace Special Enrollment Period . Digital platforms – including Delivery Drivers, Inc., DoorDash, Lyft, Postmates, StyleSeat, Uber, and Wonolo – are participating in “Gig Workers’ Week of Action” to promote Marketplace healthcare plans to their workforces.
Under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 , most consumers are able to take advantage of reduced monthly premiums through increased tax credit help. For new consumers selecting plans during the SEP, the average monthly premium after tax credits fell over 25%, from $117 for those enrolling in February and March to $86 for those enrolling in the month of April.
Large online platforms participating in this Gig Workers Week of Action pledged to provide their workforces with information on affordable coverage. Activities include informing drivers and couriers about the Week of Action to help create awareness about availability of coverage through the Marketplace, hosting a blog, sharing stories of how drivers have benefited from Marketplace coverage, and providing communications in English and Spanish to reach a broader audience.
