How To Get Health Insurance On Your Own? 
That 's a great question ! The enrollment period for heath insurance has closed for now , and will reopen this fall , so unless you qualify for one of the exceptions , you will have until then to decide which policy you would like . You can be insured under a parents policy through age 26 , but can purchase your own also . When you can , I suggest that you go to the Affordable Care Act -LRB- Obamacare -RRB- site and shop there . You may qualify for help in paying for your policy . If you need help , please feel free to contact me , okay ? Thank you for asking !
