What is going on in
your life right now?
Pick the situation closest to yours. A real person will take it from there — calmly, and without pressure.
I just lost my job
You have 60 days and real options beyond COBRA. We'll walk you through them — slowly, and free.
Start hereI'm new to the U.S.
Different statuses unlock different programs. A bilingual advocate will explain what you qualify for.
Start hereMoney is tight right now
Medicaid and CHIP exist for exactly this. Most who qualify don't realize they do.
Start hereCOBRA is too expensive
There are almost always cheaper, equally good options. We'll show you the math in plain language.
Start hereI've never had coverage
It's okay. Plenty of adults are in the same place. We start from where you are today.
Start hereI need care this week
Community health centers, sliding-scale clinics, and free programs — near you, today.
Start hereYou're not falling through
the cracks. You're here.
Meet Assistance was built for adults whose situations don't fit a form. If any of these sound like you, this is the right door.
Recently lost a job
You don't have to lose coverage with it. We help you understand the 60-day Special Enrollment window and find a plan that fits your new budget.
New to the country
Green card, refugee, student visa, or undocumented — your status changes what's available, but everyone has options. A bilingual advocate will walk you through them.
Between systems
Released from care, aging off a parent's plan, recently separated, or in a paperwork gap. Real coverage paths exist for life in transition.
A family stretched thin
Kids almost always qualify for CHIP, even when adults don't. We help families piece together the right combination of coverage and community care.
Three calm steps,
about twenty minutes.
Most people get all the way to a real answer in a single call. We don't rush it.
Tell us what's going on
A short conversation — ZIP, household size, and what's actually happening in your life. No documents required to start.
Talk to a real advocate
A licensed advisor in your state listens first, then explains every option that fits you. Plain language. No insurance jargon.
Find the right path
Marketplace plan with a subsidy, Medicaid, a community health center, or a combination. You decide what to do — never pressured.
Less of a hotline.
More of a hand.
Meet Assistance is built for the conversations the marketplace websites cannot have with you. We're here for the gray areas — the “I don't even know what to ask” calls.
Human-first
Every conversation starts with listening. Never a script, never a robot reading from a form.
Always free
We don't charge you. Ever. Programs and carriers compensate us when you choose to enroll — you pay the same as going direct.
Bilingual & patient
English and Spanish on the same line. Other languages by appointment. We slow down for whatever you need.
Community-connected
When insurance isn't the right answer this month, we point you to the community health center, financial assistance, or local program that is.
Real stories.
Real people. Real relief.
A few notes from people who wrote in when nothing else felt possible.
I lost my job in February and didn't know what to do. The person who replied to my email didn't make me feel stupid. She just listened, then walked me through a plan that cost less than my old one.
Llegué a este país hace siete meses. Nadie me había explicado el sistema en español sin prisas. Aquí lo hicieron. Mi hija ahora tiene cobertura.
I thought I made too much for Medicaid. Turns out my kids qualify for CHIP. The whole thing took one conversation and zero dollars.
I almost signed up for COBRA out of panic. Meet Assistance ran the numbers with me and found a marketplace plan that saved me $1,140 a month.
I've never had insurance in my life. I called expecting a sales pitch. I got a person who treated me like a person.
Después del huracán perdí mi trabajo y mi seguro. Ellos me ayudaron a inscribirme en Medicaid de emergencia el mismo día.

Who are you looking out for?
This helps us know who needs care.
The questions people
ask us most.
Honest answers, no insurance jargon, no fine print under the fold.
Yes. You never pay Meet Assistance — not for the call, not to enroll, not later. When you choose a marketplace or insurance plan, the carrier pays us a standard commission. Your premium is exactly the same as if you had signed up alone. If you end up on Medicaid or a community program, no one pays anything at all.
No. The first call is just a conversation. We may ask for things like a recent pay stub or your immigration document later — but only when (and if) you decide to apply for something specific. Nothing is required upfront.
Under current federal rules, using marketplace coverage, Medicaid for normal care, CHIP for your children, or community health centers does NOT count against you for public charge. Only long-term institutional care and cash assistance count. We will go over this carefully on the call.
You may qualify for free Medicaid coverage today. In many states the threshold is around $1,732/month for a single adult and ~$3,588/month for a family of four. If you don't qualify, you are almost certainly eligible for a $0 or near-$0 marketplace plan.
Not at all. A large share of the people we talk to have never had coverage before. We meet you exactly where you are — no judgment, no quiz, no pretending to understand things you weren't taught.
Sí. We have bilingual advocates on the line every day. Other languages are available by appointment — just ask when you call or fill out the form.
No. Meet Assistance is an independent service. We help you navigate government and private programs — including the federal marketplace, state Medicaid, CHIP, community health centers, and licensed insurance carriers — but we are not affiliated with any of them.
We can still help. Federally Qualified Health Centers exist in nearly every county and charge a sliding fee based on income — sometimes as low as $25 for a visit. Many nonprofit hospitals also offer financial assistance. We'll point you to specific resources near you on the call.
