Individual/family health insurance open enrollment runs from November 1, 2024 – December 16, 2024 for a January 1, 2025 effective date. This year, Georgians will use the new state-based marketplace, Georgia Access, to obtain health insurance coverage for individuals and families.
Georgia Access is the state’s program for Georgians to shop for and enroll in health insurance. With Georgia Access, Georgians will find many options to enroll in high quality, comprehensive, and affordable health insurance. According to September 2023 data from the U.S. Census Bureau, there are 1.2 million Georgians without health insurance – we can help lower that number!
In February 2023, Governor Brian P. Kemp designated OCI Commissioner John F. King to lead Georgia’s transition from a State-based Exchange on the Federal Platform (SBE-FP) to a State-based Exchange (SBE). During Open Enrollment 2025, Georgia Access will transition to an SBE, which means Georgians can visit GeorgiaAccess.gov to shop for, compare, and directly enroll in health insurance coverage.
Individuals and families can still utilize their local broker to assist with health insurance enrollment. “It is always a good idea to review your current health insurance elections to ensure proper coverage for you and your family,” noted Marcy Heath, CEO of Insurance Solutions of the South. “Sometimes your health and/or prescription medications may change and we are always happy to assist clients with selecting a plan that is affordable and meets their needs,” said Marcy Heath.
