Affordable Care (F)Acts.

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) was enacted in 2010 to make health insurance available to every American and is still in effect. Key highlights:

Insurers cannot:

  • reject you for having a pre-existing condition
  • put lifetime limits on coverage
  • withdraw your coverage just because you're sick

An ACA-compliant health care plan should cover these basics:

  • emergency care
  • hospitalization
  • RX drugs
  • maternity and newborn care
  • lab services

Mylo is an independent broker who only guides you to plans that are ACA compliant—in a fast, friendly, easy-to-navigate online shop.

Decoding Open and Special Enrollment

The Affordable Care Act established a specific time period when you can enroll in health insurance without a qualifying life event. Open Enrollment for 2022 runs through Jan. 15, 2022 in most states.

Outside of Open Enrollment, you can still enroll in health insurance as long as you've had a life-changing event including:

  • losing coverage
  • changing your household income
  • moving to another county or ZIP code
  • getting married
  • losing dependent status
  • getting divorced or separated
  • having a baby or adopting a child
  • changing immigration status

Check out these six steps for enrolling in health insurance.
