Scripps Health and insurance agency INSURUS will host a free Covered California education and enrollment event Saturday, Dec. 13, 2014, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 740 Bay Blvd. in Chula Vista.

• Meet one-on-one with a certified licensed agent to discuss individual needs
• Learn if they are eligible for a subsidy to lower the cost of their monthly premium
• Get free health screenings and physician referrals.
• Take advantage of free on-site child care.

Those interested in enrolling at the event, should bring these documents:
• 2013 tax return
• California driver’s license or ID
• Social security card
• Current pay stub
• Bank statement
• Green card/residential card
• Certificate of naturalization
