Health insurance plans - and your needs - can change from year to year, so it's important to look at what options are available every year during Open Enrollment. Here are some ways to find the best coverage for your specific needs and budget:
- Review your application: Enhanced federal financial savings continue to be available on CoverME.gov, and today more than 80% of Mainers qualify for savings. Even if you haven't qualified before, update or complete the application to see if you could pay less for your insurance.
- Compare plans: Use our Plan Compare tool to see plan features, benefits, and total estimated costs for services (not just premiums or deductibles) side-by-side and review which plans include your doctors, prescription drugs, and more. After you log in to your CoverME.gov account, select the green "Plan Compare" button while shopping for plans.
If your income or household size changes during the year, please update your CoverME.gov application as soon as possible. These changes -- like higher or lower income, adding or losing household members, or getting offers of other health coverage – may affect the coverage or financial support you receive.
