Open enrollment for 2021 health insurance plans through Covered California takes place Nov. 1, 2020, through Jan. 31, 2021. You may get coverage outside of that period if you have a qualifying life event, such as marriage, divorce, birth or lost job.
Why do I need health insurance?
Since Jan. 1, 2020, Californians are required to have qualifying health insurance coverage throughout the year. Those who do not may face a financial penalty unless they qualify for an exemption. Learn more by visiting the State of California Franchise Tax Board.
