Marketplace Open Enrollment Period began yesterday and runs through January 15, 2026. During the last Open Enrollment Period just over 400,000 Arizonans elected health coverage through the Marketplace.

Finding health coverage can feel complicated and honestly mind numbing. Fortunately, we have Cover Arizona to help you with certified enrollment assistors who can find the best healthcare options. The services are free, and appointments are available in-person and over the phone.
Cover Arizona helps community members understand their health insurance options and helps them apply for AHCCCS, KidsCare and Marketplace coverage.
You need to pick and pay for the first month coverage by December 15 to get coverage by January 1, 2026… but it’s probably best to do your window shopping now but wait until the tax credit issue is resolved before actually signing up.
