What this bill would do
This bill, known as the "ENROLL Act of 2025," seeks to amend the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act regarding the navigator program. It introduces new requirements for how grants are awarded to entities within State-operated exchanges. The legislation mandates that grant recipients include at least one community and consumer-focused nonprofit group. Additionally, it expands the scope of information provided to include State Medicaid and State children's health insurance programs. The bill also requires navigators to conduct public education in plain language and maintain a physical presence for in-person assistance. Finally, it establishes a specific funding obligation for Federal exchanges.

Who it would affect, and how
Potential Positive Impacts for People
-
Expanded Information Access: The bill adds requirements for navigators to provide information regarding State Medicaid plans and State children's health insurance programs (Section 2(a)(2)(A)). This could help people understand more of their available health coverage options.
-
Improved Clarity: Navigators will be required to conduct public education activities using plain language to raise awareness of requirements and protections (Section 2(a)(2)(B)). This may make complex health plan information easier for the public to understand.
-
In-Person Assistance: The bill requires entities to maintain a physical presence in the State of the Exchange (Section 2(a)(3)(D)(iii)). This allows consumers to receive assistance in person rather than just through digital or phone means.
-
Support for Nonprofits: The Exchange must award grants to at least one entity that is a community and consumer-focused nonprofit group (Section 2(a)(2)(C)(iii)). This ensures these specific types of organizations are involved in the navigator program.
