Health Insurance Enrollment Plans

The Open Enrollment Period is the primary time you can sign up for a Marketplace plan. Medicaid or CHIP enrollment is available year-round. During Open Enrollment, you can apply for a Marketplace plan online, by phone, via a paper application, or with assistance from a community helper.

Some individuals may qualify for Special Enrollment Periods, which allow them to enroll in a Marketplace plan outside of Open Enrollment due to certain life events like marriage, childbirth, or loss of other coverage.
