You may qualify for a Special Enrollment Period with a life event
Open Enrollment for 2022 is over, but you may still qualify to enroll in or change Marketplace coverage for the rest of the year if you’ve had a recent life event. Getting married, having a baby, moving, and losing health coverage all count. (Note: These are the most common life changes; here’s the full list of qualifying life events). In addition to having a life event, you may also qualify based on your estimated household income.
