Gov. Tom Wolf Visits Braddock Health Center Ahead Of Pennie Enrollment Deadline

By: KDKA-TV News Staff

BRADDOCK, Pa. (KDKA) - Jan. 15 is the deadline for Pennsylvanians to get insurance through the state-run marketplace Pennie.

On Wednesday, Gov. Tom Wolf and other state leaders were in Braddock to encourage those without insurance to sign up.

Leaders say they've seen a rise in demand for medical care and for those without insurance, the bills can be devastating. They say patients using Pennie typically see a lower cost per plan than private insurance.

In 2019, Wolf signed legislation replacing healthcare.gov with Pennie.
