Legislative Update
Open and Special Enrollment FAQs on Marketplace Now Available

We recently released an article about open and special enrollment on Get Covered Illinois, the Official Health Marketplace of Illinois.

We have now turned that article into a FAQ handout to provide to employees who may have questions about enrollment on the Marketplace. Among the questions answered in the FAQs document are:

  • When does coverage on the Marketplace take effect?
  • If a person is covered as an individual in the Marketplace, can he decide to drop his Marketplace coverage?
  • If a person has employer-provided coverage, can he seek coverage on the Marketplace?
  • How will the Affordable Care Act affect COBRA eligibility?

Review the FAQs.
