Open Enrollment is Here! Enroll from Nov 1 - Jan 15 to secure your coverage. Tips to enroll →

Manage Your Account

If you’re currently enrolled in a plan through BeWell, you may qualify for additional tax credits that can lower your cost. Schedule an appointment with a certified assister or enrollment counselor today to find out if you’re eligible.

If you have a health insurance plan through BeWell at any point during the year, you will need to “reconcile” your premium tax credits when you file your taxes. You can find the information you need to file your taxes, FAQs on forms 1095-A and 8962, and the Second Lowest Cost Silver Plan (SLCSP) calculator on our tax information page.

Update or Change Your Plan

If you experience a change to your income or household — such as a pay raise, a new household member, or a dependent getting other coverage — you must update your BeWell application.

  • Some changes will qualify you for a Special Enrollment Period, allowing you to change your plan outside of the Open Enrollment period.
  • Some changes, like an increase or decrease in income, may affect your savings or coverage eligibility. If you don’t update your application, you may miss out on additional savings or need to pay money back when you file your taxes.

To update or change your plan, login to your account.

Renew Your Plan

If you have a health insurance plan through BeWell, you can renew your plan during the Open Enrollment period, which typically runs from November 1 to January 15.

If you don’t take any action during Open Enrollment, BeWell will automatically re-enroll you in your current plan. If your plan is no longer available, you will be enrolled in a similar plan.

We encourage you to log in and compare your current plan to what’s available on the marketplace during Open Enrollment. You may be able to save money if you shop and compare your options each year.

We also strongly encourage you to review your contact and income information during Open Enrollment to ensure it is accurate. Marketplace savings are based on your expected income. If you don’t update your income and household information, your premium tax credit and other savings could be wrong. If this happens:

  • You could wind up paying more for your monthly premium than you have to.
  • You may use more advance payments of the premium tax credit than you qualify for. You’d then have to pay back some or all of the difference when you file your federal taxes.

To renew your plan, login to your account.

Cancel Your Plan

You can cancel your health insurance at any time. You may need to do this if you get other health coverage or for another reason.
You can end coverage for:

  • Everyone on your application after your coverage has started. Your termination can take effect at the end of the month or you can set the coverage to end up to two months in advance.  You might choose a future date if you know your new coverage will start on the first day of the following month, for example.
  • Just some people on the application.

To cancel your plan, login to your account.
