assignment. but keep in mind, these call centers are already up and running. and you can get your questions answered by the phone number for these call centers is 1-800-318-2596. i want to repeat that, 1-800-318-2596. wait times have averaged less than one minute so far on the call centers. although i admit that the wait times probably might go up a little bit now that i ve read the number out loud on national television. but the point is, the call centers are available. you can talk to somebody directly and they can walk you through the application process. and i guarantee you i one thing s worth the wait it s the safety and security of health care that you can afford or the amount of money that you can save by buying health insurance through the marketplaces.
