Are you in need of health insurance or is your health care coverage not affordable? McDonough city councilwoman Sandra Vincent is sponsoring a Healthcare Open House on Saturday from 11 a.m. to noon at Jazzy Brown Jaz Cafe, 1101 McDonough Place in McDonough. The open house is designed to help people learn more about the Affordable Care Act, which created access to health insurance for Americans, and to enroll in the program. Open enrollment in the federally-created health insurance marketplaces ends March 31.
