Daniel Fortuño is the Founder and Executive
Director of Options: A Benefits Training Foundation. Options is a nonprofit
organization whose mission is to “ensure economic security for people with
disabilities and a stronger society by addressing how to access services to
meet basic needs from income to health coverage and removing barriers to
employment.” Options enables community-based organizations to offer more
comprehensive benefits choices to people living with disabilities.

may be able to enroll in and access private health coverage through
employment, unions, and associations,
- Understand what pre-existing condition
exclusionary periods are for private health coverage, and
- How individuals may be able to use
previous coverage to reduce pre-existing condition exclusionary periods
for private health coverage.
