Connect for Health Colorado opens a special enrollment period (SEP) for uninsured Coloradans to get health insurance. Uninsured people will be allowed to enroll in individual health insurance plans until April 3, 2020. Coverage will be effective starting on April 1, regardless of when someone enrolls during that window.

Only people who are currently uninsured are eligible to enroll, as this is not a period for people with coverage to change plans. Uninsured spouses and children will also be allowed to enroll at this time, even if one spouse or a child’s parent may already be insured.

“We encourage everyone who is uninsured to use this opportunity to visit Connect for Health Colorado, check what assistance they may be eligible for, and enroll in coverage. Many people are unaware that they are eligible for financial assistance to help lower their premiums,” said Michael Conway, Colorado Insurance Commissioner.

For unemployed

Conway encouraged Colorado consumers to enroll through our state’s exchange. Financial assistance for those who qualify is only available when enrolling through Connect for Health Colorado. Conway indicates that Coloradans who lose their job, or who may lose their job in the coming weeks, and thus lose their employer-based health insurance, will have a 60-day window to enroll in individual coverage, whenever that might happen throughout the year.
