Marketplace Open Enrollment

December 2, 2025

Open Enrollment is here for Marketplace Plans!

Open enrollment happens every year. It begins November 1st and ends January 15th. During this time, anyone can apply for health insurance through Washington Healthplanfinder.

Now’s your chance to sign up for, renew or change your health insurance plan through the Washington Health Benefit Exchange using Washington Healthplanfinder. These Exchange plans offer comprehensive coverage and many Washingtonians qualify for financial help to lower monthly costs.

Why Choose an Exchange Plan?

  • Access affordable, high-quality health insurance
  • See if you qualify for tax credits or subsidies
  • Avoid gaps in coverage and stay protected all year long
