Background:
Platinum Exchange is North Carolina’s one-stop shop for affordable health insurance for individuals, families and small businesses. The company launched to help North Carolina’s workforce address the changes brought about by the Affordable Care Act.

Healthcare is now inseparably linked with taxes, and Platinum Exchange was founded on its expertise in tax planning and preparation through its sister firm, Platinum Accounting. This knowledge, coupled with Platinum Exchange’s dedication to the community, serves as the foundation for a new type of healthcare support – one that serves the interests of those who currently have no health insurance, who pay for their own coverage, or who can only afford minimal coverage.

As an Authorized Agency of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina, the Asheville-based company is enrolling residents across the state through the open enrollment period ending March 31, 2014. Coverage for plans purchased through the Exchanges begins January 1, 2014. For anyone who is uninsured, underinsured, previously faced denial of coverage for pre-existing conditions or other barriers, Platinum Exchange is offering a navigable, accessible and supportive road to health care coverage. They offer free consultations, free public presentations, do-it-yourself enrollment for individuals and families, and information for employers. The office is located just north of downtown Asheville at 138 Charlotte Street, Suite 103.
