INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Most health insurance companies require that your newborn be added to an existing policy within 30 days of birth. Under the Affordable Care Act in the United States, you are required to sign your baby up for health insurance. Failing to do so could lead to a penalty of $47.50 per each uninsured child and you will need to pay for medical services for your baby out of pocket. Though most larger health insurance carriers will notice your health care claims submission for the birth of the baby and reach out to you about updating your health care insurance, you should be proactive and contact your health insurance company directly. This will ensure your health insurance company is aware you have a new baby and you intend to seek coverage for your new baby. Many health insurance companies make it easy for you to update your plan by accessing their App on your mobile phone. You can also call your health insurance company via their customer service line to speak to an insurance agent. In the United States, having a baby is considered a qualifying life event under the Affordable Care Act and you will be eligible for a special enrollment period. This means you will not need to wait for the next enrollment period to insure your baby under your health care plan. By enrolling your baby in health care coverage with a special enrollment period (SEP), you can ensure your baby's coverage can begin the day she is born, even if you do not enroll her until up to 60 days after her birth. If you have an existing health insurance plan, you can add your baby to your existing plan or you can decide to change your health insurance plan to a family plan. Keep in mind you may be restricted to a certain health insurance plan if you get health insurance through your employer or through government assistance, such as Medicaid. Talk to a health insurance company representative about your ability to upgrade your existing plan or to switch to a different plan that provides better benefits for your new baby.

SUMMARY: Get in touch with your health insurance company as soon as possible. Be aware you will qualify for the special enrollment period as a new parent. Discuss the health insurance options for your expanding family.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Get dropped off a few houses down and walk the rest of the way. Don't act suspicious in any way and walk normally, don't run. Stick to the shadows if you can. If you drove your own car, switch off your headlights right before you pull into your driveway. The bag is something you would need to plan one day in advance. Stash a spare pair of PJs and a bottle of makeup remover somewhere outside of your house in a waterproof bag. Hide the bag in a garage, bush, under a deck anywhere you know it will be safe. Do this so that you can change back into your pajamas and clean off your makeup before going past your parents' room or in case they wake up and see you elsewhere in the house. Go behind a tree or around to the back of your house to slip back into your PJs and remove your makeup. Put your party clothes and accessories into the waterproof bag and hide it in the same place as before. You can safely retrieve it the following day. Go via the route you planned ahead of time. Even though you might be nervous and twitchy, try to move slowly and carefully. The finish line is in sight and you don't want to blow it now! You're almost there. YOU DID IT! Get in bed and reflect on how awesome that was, then get some rest.

SUMMARY: Approach your house quietly and from a distance if possible. Retrieve your hidden waterproof bag (optional). Sneak back in quietly. Return to your bedroom.
