What is a Special Enrollment Period
Special Enrollment Period is a time outside of the Open Enrollment Period during which you and your family may be able to sign up for health coverage. You may qualify for special enrollment up to 60 days following certain life events that involve a change in family status (for example, marriage or birth of a child) or loss of other health coverage. Job-based plans must provide a special enrollment period of 30 days.
