Can I enroll in a health plan outside of the Open Enrollment Period?

In general, if you are enrolled in, or qualify for, any of the following types of coverage, you would not qualify for financial help through our Connect for Health Colorado Marketplace:

(1) Employer coverage, unless the coverage is unaffordable (defined as your contribution to the premium for self-only coverage costs more than 9.78% of your household income) or does not meet minimum value.

(2) Government-sponsored coverage, including Health First Colorado (Colorado’s Medicaid program), Child Health Plan Plus (CHP+), Medicare Part A coverage, Peace Corp coverage, Veterans Affairs (VA) health coverage and TRICARE coverage.

The best way to find out if you or members in your household qualify for financial help is to complete an application.
