🗓️ Health insurance open enrollment starts Nov 1. Before you pick a 2027 plan, run through this checklist:
1. Don't let it auto-renew without looking. Extra subsidies from recent years have expired, so your 2027 price may differ even if the plan name is the same.
2. Update your income projection. The credit is based on the income you report. A raise, bonus, or side business can change what you qualify for.
3. Check that your doctors are still in network. Plans change networks every year.
4. Enroll by Dec 15 for Jan 1 coverage. In New York the window runs through Jan 31, but waiting past Dec 15 can push your start date.
5. Watch the rules. A proposed IRS rule could change who qualifies for the credit starting in 2027. It's not final law yet, but enroll carefully while the rules move.
