Open Enrollment for Health Insurance 2024

The Health Insurance Marketplace is for people who do not have health insurance.

The Marketplace can help you receive health insurance if you don’t have it through work, Medicare, Medicaid, the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), or another source that provides qualifying health coverage.

If you have job-based insurance, you can purchase a plan through the Marketplace, but you’ll have to pay full price unless your employer’s insurance meets certain criteria. The majority of job-based programs meet the requirements.

You can’t switch to Marketplace insurance, supplement your coverage with a Marketplace plan, or purchase a Marketplace dental plan if you have Medicare. Learn everything there is to know about Medicare and the Marketplace.

2024 Open Enrollment runs from November 1, 2023, through January 15, 2024. 

Enroll by December 15, 2023, for coverage that starts January 1, 2024.

After January 15, you can enroll in 2024 health insurance only if you qualify for a Special Enrollment Period.
