Open Enrollment Information
Open Enrollment is happening now for all health insurance plans on the Marketplace.
Now is the time to modify, change, or re-enroll in your coverage. It is very important that you review your family’s plan every year, as things tend to change. Terms like “copay accumulators” and “short-term health plans” may not meet the needs for bleeding disorders patients.
Open Enrollment for Qualified Health Plans begins November 1, 2019 and will continue through January 31, 2020. New enrollees can apply for coverage starting on November 1, 2019. Current enrollees may begin renewing coverage on November 16.
