CALIFORNIA
Transitioning into Covered California health plans is relatively simple through special enrollment
There are currently more than 336,000 Californians between the ages of 18 and 34 enrolled health plans through Covered California, and they are receiving quality, name-brand insurance coverage without breaking their banks.
The following circumstances are among the more common reasons people become eligible for Covered California Special Enrollment:
- Losing health coverage because you have lost or changed jobs.
- Turning 26-years-old.
- Getting married or entering a domestic partnership.
- Having a baby or adopting a child.
- Moving and gaining access to new Covered California health insurance plans that were not available where you previously lived.
- Becoming a citizen, a U.S. national or a lawfully present individual.
- If you qualify under any of these conditions, you are eligible to get health insurance coverage and join your fellow Californians in having one less thing to worry about. Make sure you take advantage of the financial help available to you and your family.

Those who qualify for Medi-Cal may enroll through Covered California year-round.
