• “Our third Open Enrollment Period is over and your work in helping us enroll a record number of Coloradans did not go unnoticed. Our Tuesday press release on the 153,583 total covered lives (by midnight Sunday) was widely reported in social and traditional media.
• Enrollments continue for folks who started the application process during open enrollment but were unable to get a financial eligibility determination by midnight Sunday. Those customers should complete their enrollment even though open enrollment has ended. A financial eligibility determination may take several days to a week to complete. Rest assured we will work with our customers to ensure they have health insurance coverage starting March 1. The same is true for customers who had a ticket opened by the Service Center that was unresolved by midnight Sunday (Jan. 31).
• And don’t forget the Special Enrollment Period available to individuals and families whose health insurance company is no longer offering health plans in their area – or because they had a policy last year that no longer meets the minimum legal requirements. They will be permitted to enroll in new coverage through Feb. 29.” [Source: Connect for Health Colorado]
