Need Health Insurance?
When Can I Sign Up for Health Insurance?
Open Enrollment begins on November 1 and goes through December 15 for coverage that begins on January 1, 2019. During this limited time period, you will be able to sign up for health insurance.
Outside of open enrollment, you will only be able to get health insurance during limited time periods if you have a qualifying life event. The best way to know that you are covered is to sign up before it’s too late. Don’t wait.
How Much Will I Pay?
The price you pay is based on several factors including your age, where you live, your income, and the type of plan you select. Depending on your situation you may qualify for programs to lower your monthly payments (possibly even pay as little as $0 per month), and you may qualify for additional programs to lower your out of pocket expenses should you need to use your plan.
Many people have found it helpful to work with an agent who is able to assess their situation and recommend the best plan for them. The good news is that you cannot be charged any more whether or not you receive help from an agent, and this right is protected by law.
