Open Enrollment 2026
Open Enrollment is the once-a-year window to buy or switch ACA Marketplace health insurance without needing a qualifying life event. Here's what you need to know for the 2026 plan year.
What to have ready
- ZIP code and county for everyone applying
- Dates of birth and legal names
- Estimated household income for 2026
- Social Security numbers (for U.S. citizens)
- Immigration document numbers (if applicable)
- Preferred doctors, hospitals, and prescriptions to check network coverage

Missed Open Enrollment?
If you missed the window, you may still qualify for a Special Enrollment Period due to a qualifying life event — losing job coverage, marriage, moving, having a baby, and more. Short-term health insurance is also available year-round for temporary coverage.
