ACA Enrollment Events
Open Enrollment (OE) for Affordable Care Act (ACA) coverage through the Healthcare Insurance Marketplace is now closed for 2025 plans. The next OE, to buy a plan for 2026, should begin Nov. 15, 2025.
Outside of any OE period, you may still qualify to enroll in ACA health coverage through a Special Enrollment Period, if you have experienced certain changes in your life, known as “qualifying life events.”
