Inscripción abierta para seguros de salud

When Is Open Enrollment?

La inscripción abierta por lo general se extiende del 1 de noviembre al 15 de diciembre todos los años, pero las fechas reales pueden variar según el estado.  Conocer las fechas y las opciones de los distintos planes en tu estado puede ayudarte a estar más preparado cuando comienza la inscripción abierta.

How Does Open Enrollment Work?

Durante la inscripción abierta, puedes conservar el seguro médico que tienes actualmente o cambiar de plan de acuerdo con las nuevas necesidades de cobertura o costo.  The Health Insurance Marketplace, established by the Affordable Care Act (ACA), helps you find health coverage that fits your needs. During Open Enrollment, you can compare plans for price, benefits, and networks in order to make the right coverage decision for you and your family.

The Marketplace offers plans in four “metal” levels: Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum. Metal levels differ only in how you and your insurance provider share the overall cost. Check for availability, as not all metal level plans are available in all areas.

Plan Bronze

Con un plan Bronce, recibes la prima mensual más baja pero con el deducible más alto. A Bronze plan is your best choice when you do not visit your doctor beyond preventive care visits but want peace-of-mind protection for medical emergencies.

Silver Plan

Los planes Plata tienen una prima mensual un poco más alta en promedio, pero ofrecen un deducible más bajo que un plan Bronce.  If you qualify, you can save even more with a Silver plan by receiving a cost-sharing reduction.

Gold Plan

Selecting a Gold plan means the monthly premium is higher, and the deductible is lower than a Silver plan. Gold may be the best plan if you require a lot of healthcare because most of your routine medical care costs are covered.

Platinum Plan

Cuando seleccionas un plan Platino, recibes la prima mensual más alta y el deducible más bajo. While not available in all areas, Platinum may be a good plan option when you rely on frequent medical care and want the most coverage.

How Can I Save On My Insurance During Open Enrollment?

Open Enrollment may also be an opportunity for you to pay less for health insurance. In 2021, 9 out of 10 enrollees received financial help through health insurance subsidies, which significantly reduced the cost of purchasing health coverage through the Marketplace.¹ Learn more about health insurance subsidies to see if you qualify.

What Happens If I Miss Open Enrollment?

You may qualify for a Special Enrollment Period if you have a qualifying life event. A Special Enrollment may give you the chance to secure healthcare protection outside of Open Enrollment.

What Is A Qualifying Life Event?

Some of the most common qualifying life events for a Special Enrollment Period include:

• Getting married.
  
  
• Having a baby or adopting a child.
  
  
• Losing your existing health coverage.
  
  
• Becoming divorced or separated.
  
  
• Experiencing the death of a spouse or partner who provided health insurance coverage.

When Can I Add Extra Coverage Like Dental And Vision?

Supplemental insurance plans like dental, vision, accident insurance, critical illness insurance, and hospital recovery insurance are available all year round, not just during Open Enrollment.
