CMS extends deadline to enroll in HealthCare.gov coverage that begins in January
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Dec. 15 announced an extension to Dec. 18 for enrollment in federally facilitated marketplace coverage that begins Jan. 1. This applies to the 31 states that use HealthCare.gov for signups. Those consumers previously had until Dec. 15 to enroll for a full year of coverage. Individuals who enroll for 2025 coverage after Dec. 18 will have their plans begin Feb. 1. Individuals in Washington, D.C., and the 19 states that operate their own state-based marketplaces are advised to visit their state website for deadlines and effective dates for their coverage.
