Sunday is Deadline for Health Insurance Plans on Individual Market

Allison Quantz / NHPR

The last day to sign up for a health insurance plan for the year on healthcare.gov is this Sunday.

After this Sunday, people in the individual market won't be able to sign up for a health insurance plan until next year, unless they experience a qualifying life event like getting married or having a baby.

New Hampshire residents can choose from plans offered by three companies this year: Anthem, Ambetter, and Harvard Pilgrim.

State officials are encouraging anyone who already has a plan on the individual marketplace to shop around and make sure they are still getting the best deal.

People looking for help in choosing a plan can get assistance on healthcare.gov or by contacting the New Hampshire Navigator program at 1-877-211-NAVI.

So far, new sign-ups for plans on healthcare.gov are down slightly from last year in New Hampshire.
