Special Enrollment Period (SEP)

A special enrollment period (SEP) is an opportunity to enroll in or make changes to private coverage outside the annual open enrollment period due to certain life events, like having a baby, getting married, moving to a new area, or losing other health coverage. If you qualify for a SEP, you usually have up to 60 days following the event to enroll in a plan.
