The Health Connector’s Open Enrollment period is ended Thursday, January 23, 2025.
Special Enrollment Period (SEP) rules are now in effect for Health Connector plans.
When Special Enrollment Period rules are in effect, individuals and families can still apply for health benefits; however, they can only enroll in Health Connector coverage if they qualify for a SEP. If someone qualifies under the rules of a SEP, they have up to 60 days to enroll in a Qualified Health Plan (QHP).
When helping someone make changes or enroll into coverage, please check their application to see if they already have a SEP. Those who are newly determined eligible for ConnectorCare on or before January 23rd will automatically get a SEP to ensure they have 60 days from the date of their eligibility determination to enroll. This means that some ConnectorCare eligible individuals can enroll in a plan or make a change to their enrollment beyond the Open Enrollment period.
Special Enrollment Period (SEP) rules will be in effect for Health Connector plans starting Friday, January 24th.

As a reminder SEP rules do not apply to enrollment in MassHealth, HSN, CMSP or a Health Connector dental plan or those enrolling in Health Connector for Business.
