See a list of qualifying life events. You have 60 days to enroll in a plan, if you qualify for an SEP. 21 But, if you miss that 60-day window, you will have to wait until OEP to enroll in an individual health insurance policy for 2024.
If you missed the 2023 Open Enrollment Period in your state and you do not qualify for an SEP, you can apply for a short-term health insurance plan.
- Short-term health insurance coverage can be purchased outside of OEP for up to 364 days, and you can reapply for short-term coverage for up to 36 months in 25 states. 22
- Short-term health insurance plans function as a temporary fit for healthy people, as they will not cover pre-existing conditions, and may be subject to medical underwriting.
If you do not qualify for an SEP and decide not to apply for a short-term health plan, you will have to wait until Open Enrollment 2024 begins in fall 2023.
HealthMarkets can help you determine whether you qualify for an SEP and find an individual health plan that meets your needs. Shop, compare, and enroll in a health plan online or call us at (800) 827-9990 .
