Yes, you can change plans for the 2024 benefit year anytime during the open enrollment period, but be aware that, for the federally facilitated Marketplace, that period lasts only from November 1, 2023 to January 16, 2024 for coverage starting in 2024. Some states have longer open enrollment periods, so check your state’s Marketplace. After open enrollment, you can only change plans once your coverage has taken effect if you have a change in circumstance qualifying you for a special enrollment period, unless you are an American Indian or Alaskan Native or, in most states, your income is below 150 percent of the federal poverty level. (45 C.F.R. § 155.420).
