Outside of the ACA Open Enrollment Period (November 1–January 15), you can still get coverage if you have a qualifying life event — such as losing a job, getting married, having a baby, or losing other coverage. This triggers a 60-day Special Enrollment Period. A licensed VT agent can confirm whether you qualify and help you enroll quickly.
