Affordable Care Act Special Open Enrollment Period
As part of the Affordable Care Act, health insurers are required to allow for an annual period in which eligible small groups can enroll in coverage without restrictions related to employer contribution and/or employee participation ratios. This period, the Special Open Enrollment Period, exists from November 15th to December 15th of each year to correspond with a January 1 effective date. Please keep this window of opportunity in mind for groups that may otherwise have challenges in meeting the usual carrier minimum thresholds.
