Nevada: Last chance for NV residents to join 93K others who've enrolled in health insurance during the 2024 Open Enrollment Period

via Nevada Health Link:

• Open Enrollment is the only time Nevadans can freely enroll in a health insurance plan without experiencing a qualifying life event

WHAT:
Nevada Health Link is encouraging Nevadans to join the more than 93,000 others who have enrolled in a health insurance plan this Open Enrollment Period. Nevadans have until January 15 at 11:59 p.m. to enroll in a health insurance plan through NevadaHealthLink.com. Nevada Health Link’s Open Enrollment Period is the only time of year Nevadans can freely enroll in a health insurance plan through the state marketplace without experiencing a qualifying life event, such as getting married, having a baby or moving. For those who enroll now, coverage will take effect on February 1, 2024.

The 93,000 figure is rounded and doesn't specify the through date, but it's slightly higher than the 92,398 CMS reported as having selected exchange plans as of Jan. 7th last year. Assuming Nevada ends up flat year over year they should close out the final week of Open Enrollment with around 97,000 enrollees.

Cost savings continue to make health insurance plans more affordable and nearly 9 in 10 Nevadans who enroll in a plan are utilizing financial assistance (tax credits) to help lower the cost of their monthly premiums.

WHEN:
Nevadans have until January 15 to enroll in a health insurance plan on NevadaHealthLink.com to qualify for the Plan Year 2024 Open Enrollment Period.

WHERE:
Nevadans can visit NevadaHealthLink.com to explore up to 163 different health insurance options (the number of plans available varies depending on county) available on the marketplace.

Nevadans can also seek free enrollment assistance with licensed enrollment professionals on NevadaHealthLink.com by using the Find Local Assistance tool on the website or by calling 1- 800-547-2927. Nevadans can use the online tool to find brokers or navigators in their area who are available to help answer questions, find coverage, and enroll in a plan. Help is available over the phone or in person, offered in multiple languages, and available in every county across the state. Nevada Health Link is the ONLY place Nevadans can receive federal tax credits (subsidies) to help offset the cost of monthly plans.

WHO:
Nevada Health Link is ideal for those who are uninsured or underinsured, do not have employer-sponsored health insurance, and do not qualify for Medicare or Medicaid. Open Enrollment is the only time of year Nevadans can freely enroll in a plan without having experienced a “qualifying life event” such as getting married, having a baby, or moving.
