TURNING 26?

It’s time to choose your own healthcare coverage

Happy Birthday!

Turning 26 is a milestone and reason to celebrate.

Did you know that when you turn 26 you are no longer eligible* to stay on your parent or guardian’s health plan? This is considered a qualifying event and makes you eligible to buy health coverage during a special enrollment period.

*The Health Insurance Marketplace® allows dependents to remain on their parent or guardian’s plan through December 31.


Not sure how to get started? We can help you choose the Individual & Family plan coverage that’s right for you.

You have a 4-month window to choose a new plan

That can go by quick, so be sure to enroll early. This special enrollment period includes:
