The integrated platform and contact center solutions ensure accurate, up-to-date enrollment data, specifically tailored for Georgians empowering them and enhancing their overall consumer experience.

GetInsured has also recently introduced an award-winning technology for client states in advance of open enrollment, the Interactive Virtual Agent (IVA). The IVA tool will provide Georgia consumers with the assistance they need when they need it. Routine consumer requests can be fulfilled 24/7 by the virtual agent, with responses to common questions available even during off-hours. This automation provides personalized and efficient service while maintaining high standards of security and privacy for Georgia Access consumers. When more assistance is required, a call center agent is available to offer additional support, ensuring comprehensive service whenever needed.

“Georgia Access is pleased to have GetInsured’s technological and contact center solutions in support of our mission to deliver quality, affordable health care to Georgians,” said Georgia Access Executive Director Cheryl Gardner. “As Georgia’s new official State-based Exchange, our goal is to transform health care with simple, easy pathways to coverage and provide a positive consumer experience that will improve access to and bolster enrollment.” 

“Advanced technology plays a crucial role in enhancing the health insurance enrollment experience,” said Chini Krishnan, CEO of GetInsured. “However, it’s the dedicated partnership with the state of Georgia – and in particular the Office of the Commissioner of Insurance and Safety Fire – along with the collaboration of insurance carriers and EDE partners, that truly fuels our success. Together, we’ve navigated the complexities of implementation and have created a seamless platform for Georgia consumers to explore and select their health insurance options. We deeply appreciate Georgia’s commitment and collaboration, which have positioned us as a market leader and ensured a smooth enrollment period for Georgia Access.”

Open Enrollment begins on November 1st in most states. Coverage typically begins at the start of the following year for those who enroll by a designated deadline.

SYDNEY, May 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today Booking.com released its 11th annual research report into consumer attitudes and understanding of the social and environmental impact of travel. With insights from 32,500 travellers across 35 markets globally, including 1,000 from Australia, this year’s research highlights a generational paradox.

While 83% of Australian travellers say that more sustainable travel is important to them, older generations demonstrate greater commitment through concrete actions, despite younger generations often expressing stronger sustainability intentions.

Older generations demonstrate greater commitment through concrete sustainable actions, with almost two–thirds of Boomers across Asia Pacific (63%) saying they will shop more at local, independent stores on their trips, three–quarters (75%) planning to reduce general waste, and 63% intending to reduce energy consumption, higher than Gen X, Millennials and Gen Z.However, younger travellers are leading in cultural and conservation management; more than a quarter of Gen Z (27%) and Millennials (26%) participated in a tour or activity that contributed to the health or conservation of the local ecosystem or wildlife.Extreme weather is actively reshaping travel choices. Nearly three-quarters of Australian travellers said they consider extreme weather risk when choosing both destination (72%), and timing (75%), and 27% reported having cancelled or changed trip plans in the past twelve months due to extreme weather or natural disaster.Australian travellers are shifting when and where they travel, seeking reliable climates and comfort. 43% say they plan to avoid overcrowded tourist destinations, 42% plan to travel outside of peak season, and 26% will seek out destinations with cooler temperatures.In 2025, travellers booked more than 100 million room nights on Booking.com at accommodation partners with a third-party sustainability certification, including at 363 third-party certified Australian properties.
