While the current administration crows about the ACA’s natural death while holding a pillow firmly over its face, we here at Motif work to ensure the old girl gets a little air. Yes, the (shortened) open enrollment period has ended. But that doesn’t mean you’re out of luck ’til next year. There are certain qualifications and life changes that make you eligible to enroll. If you qualify for Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program, you can always enroll. You also can enroll if you get married; have a baby, adopt a child or place a child in foster care; lost your health insurance as a result of divorce or separation; have a change in residence; lose employment-based health insurance; get out of jail or if someone on your plan dies. For details about these situations and more, talk to the folks at HealthSourceRI.
