Health Insurance 847.570.4202 Health Insurance Home » Health Insurance Health Insurance Coverage In March 2010, the Affordable Care Act was signed into law. The bill includes reforms meant to strengthen consumer rights and protections and improve the quality of American health care. Under this legislation, you have a stronger voice regarding your health care and insurance coverage, and you will have access to care you may have been unable to receive before. Insurance Plans We Accept Open Enrollment Whether you are getting a health insurance plan for the first time or you want to replace or renew the one you have, it’s important to know when you can sign up for or make changes to your health coverage. Learn more about these periods, called open enrollment, and what happens if you miss them. Open Enrollment for 2021 is now closed. You may still be eligible for Special Enrollment. Open Enrollment for 2022 coverage will run from November 1 through January 15, 2022. However, in order to have coverage that begins on 01/01/2022, enrollment must be completed by December 15. Enrollments and plan changes submitted between December 16 and January 15 will take effect on 02/01/2022 instead. FAQs What's the Exchange? How is insurance coverage going to be different?
