How to Enroll
Apply for a tax credit, then shop, compare, and enroll in quality health insurance plans.
WHEN TO ENROLL
Enrollment Opportunities
There are two windows of time you can apply for a tax credit, shop, and enroll in coverage through Your Health Idaho:
Open Enrollment
October 15 – December 15 each year
During Open Enrollment, Idahoans can apply for a tax credit and enroll in a health insurance plan for the coming year. Idahoans already enrolled with Your Health Idaho can make changes or renew their coverage for the next year.
Special Enrollment Period
Requires a Qualifying Life Event
Outside of Open Enrollment, you can apply for a tax credit and enroll in or make changes to your health insurance coverage if you experience a Qualifying Life Event, which opens a Special Enrollment Period.
