BOCA RATON, Fla. - Open enrollment ends on a fixed date, but the need for coverage does not. Health Insurance Now, a licensed health insurance brokerage, is reminding consumers who missed the deadline or experienced a life event that private plans offer year-round enrollment, giving anyone who must find coverage right away, including those who need health insurance now, an option that does not depend on the government calendar.
A job loss, a move, a divorce or a lapsed policy can leave a person uninsured outside the government enrollment window. The company says private plans are not tied to that calendar, and coverage can often begin within 24 to 48 hours of approval, depending on the carrier and the applicant's circumstances. Health Insurance Now adds that the timing is the main reason many people turn to a brokerage after a deadline has passed.
For people who need health insurance now, the practical questions are how quickly coverage can start, what it will cost and which doctors it works with. "When a person needs coverage quickly, the worst feeling is believing every door closed until the next enrollment season," said Matthew Sechter, CEO of Health Insurance Now. "Our first job is to slow the situation down just enough to find the right plan, then speed everything else up."
Agents compare plans from more than 25 national carriers using the company's proprietary software, including private PPO networks with nationwide access. Quotes are typically available in minutes, and the brokerage handles the enrollment paperwork. The company says this approach is meant to shorten the distance between a first phone call and an active plan without skipping the conversation about what the plan covers.
The company notes that savings, eligibility and availability vary by state, plan and individual, and that some plans exclude pre-existing conditions. "Urgent should not mean uninformed," Sechter said. "We walk people through what a plan covers before they commit, because a quick decision is only a good one if the person understands what they chose."
Support continues after enrollment, according to the company, so customers have a point of contact once coverage begins and can ask questions as they use their plan for the first time.
