Open Enrollment

Open Enrollment is an event that happens every year from November 1 through January 15. During Open Enrollment, Maine residents can get or change private health and dental insurance plans that meet Affordable Care Act standards. Every plan offered on CoverME.gov is a high quality plan. All plans give you comprehensive health coverage. They cover doctor's visits, prescriptions, emergency care, and more. All plans on CoverME.gov are from legitimate companies licensed in Maine. Plans change every year! It's important to update your application and check what plans are available for the new year. Deadlines to enroll are:

  • December 15 for coverage that starts January 1
  • January 15 for coverage that starts February 1

Outside of Open Enrollment, you may be able to get or change health coverage if you have a recent life event such as losing other health coverage or getting married by using a Special Enrollment Period or if your estimated income qualifies you for a Special Enrollment Period or MaineCare.
