Kent Kingsley on September 23, 2015

As you may or may not be aware with the changes from the Affordable Care Act you can only purchase health insurance and/or change your coverage during the Annual Enrollment Period (AEP), unless you have a qualifying life event that triggers a Special Enrollment Period.

 

Well  2016 AEP for Obamacare in NC is almost here so if you need to enroll in coverage or change your current plan for 2016 it needs to be completed between Nov 1, 2015 – Jan 31,2016. Below is a chart that shows the date the new plan goes into effect based on when the coverage changes are made:

 

Change Date Policy Effective Date
11/1/15 – 12/15/15 1/1/16
12/16/15 – 1/15/16 2/1/16
1/16/16 – 1/31/16 3/1/16

Just to recap, to be eligible for health insurance with subsidies through the Marketplace you must meet the following eligibility requirements:

  1. Cannot have access to employer coverage…this includes through your employment and spouses employment.
  2. Must have Modified Annual Gross Income (MAGI) between 100 – 400% Federal Poverty Level.  See this page for the chart to see if you fall in the income range
