When does the Open Enrollment Period end?

• A. January 15, 2025
• B. December 15, 2024
• C. February 15, 2025
• D. March 1, 2025

Answer: (A)

Open Enrollment Period is the annual window when consumers can enroll in or change Marketplace plans for the upcoming year. It has a fixed end date so everyone completes applications in a defined timeframe. In this scenario, the end date is January 15, 2025. That means to enroll for coverage starting February 2025, you need to complete enrollment by that date. After January 15, you generally can’t enroll or switch plans unless you have a qualifying life event that triggers a Special Enrollment Period. A related detail you might hear is that December 15 can be a deadline for certain plans to start on January 1, but the official Open Enrollment window ends on January 15.
