Individual and Family Health Plans

Frequently Asked Questions

What is open enrollment for health insurance?

Open enrollment is the annual period when you can sign up for, renew, or change your health insurance plan through the ACA Marketplace. Missing this window usually means waiting until next year unless you qualify for a Special Enrollment Period after specific life changes.

When is open enrollment for health insurance?

Open enrollment for 2026 health insurance coverage through the ACA Marketplace will runs from November 1, 2025, to January 15, 2026. Enroll by December 15 for coverage starting January 1, or by January 15 for coverage beginning February 1. If you miss open enrollment, you may still qualify for a Special Enrollment Period after life changes like marriage, birth, or losing other coverage.

What types of insurance do you offer?

We offer a wide range of health and life insurance policies ranging from individual and family marketplace plans to Medicare and group health options.

Why should I choose an insurance broker instead of going directly to an insurance company?

Brokers represent you, not the insurance companies. We work with multiple insurers, which means we can shop around to find the best rates and coverage options for your unique situation.

How can I get a health insurance quote?

Getting a quote is easy! You can fill out our online form on this page, give us a call on 406 401 7220, or talk to us via chat on this page. Alternatively, you can search plans using our link here.
We’ll review your needs and get back to you quickly with options tailored to you.

How quickly can I get coverage once I apply?

This varies, but in many cases, we can get coverage within 24-48 hours and sometimes it’s the same day you apply. We’ll let you know the expected timeline based on the type of insurance and carrier.

Is health insurance mandatory?

It depends on how old you are and which state you are in. Standard health insurance for individuals and families under 65 years old is no longer mandatory at a federal level but some states still require it.

Do you offer health insurance for small businesses?

Yes! We can help with setting your business up with a health plan for your employees.

How often should I review my health insurance policy?

It’s a good idea to review your health policies annually or whenever you have major life or business changes. We’re here to help ensure your coverage always meets your needs.

Can I adjust my health coverage if my needs change?

This depends on your situation. If for example you have a standard individual ACA health insurance plan then you can only change plans if you are eligible to do so. This is during an enrolment period or if you have something called a qualifying life event (like getting married, having a baby etc.)
