When you enroll in the same health insurance plan for another year.
Health insurance plans only last for a year, so if you want to continue being covered, it’s important to renew during Open Enrollment (opens in new tab).
Some plans renew automatically, while others require you to resubmit your info. Usually your health insurance company will send you a reminder before Open Enrollment begins, but it’s always a good idea to check what your plan’s renewal process is.
If you got your health insurance through the Marketplace (opens in new tab), it’s a good idea to review your information before the end of Open Enrollment. Make sure to update any changes to your income and household information, because this can impact which plans and subsidies that may be available to you.
