Life is full of changes, and some of these changes can impact your health insurance needs. While the Affordable Care Act (ACA) Marketplace has a set Open Enrollment Period each year, certain Qualifying Life Events (QLEs) allow you to enroll in or change your health insurance plan outside of that window. Understanding these life events can help ensure that you and your family have the coverage you need when you need it. At YourMedPlan , we specialize in helping individuals navigate the ACA Marketplace and find the best health insurance options tailored to their needs. If you've recently experienced a Qualifying Life Event , you may be eligible for a Special Enrollment Period (SEP) —allowing you to enroll in a new plan outside of the standard Open Enrollment timeframe.
