Special Enrollment Period (SEP): The Basics

 
 

A Special Enrollment Period (SEP) is a specific timeframe during which individuals and families can enroll in or make changes to their health insurance coverage outside of the typical open enrollment period. SEP is a valuable opportunity for those who experience certain qualifying life events such as marriage, birth or adoption of a child, loss of other health coverage, or a change in residence. It allows individuals to access coverage when they need it the most, offering the peace of mind that comes with having health insurance protection. During a special enrollment period, individuals can explore options, compare plans, and select the coverage that suits their specific needs, ensuring they have access to the care and services they require.
