There are two enrollment periods when you can buy a plan:
Open Enrollment Period The period each year anyone can enroll in a plan. For coverage that starts in 2021, this period is November 1 through December 15, 2020. Special Enrollment Period A 60-day period outside of the Open Enrollment Period when you can enroll in a plan. You only qualify if you experience certain life events like getting married, losing coverage, moving, having a baby, or adopting a child.
