- Placement for Adoption
- Marriage
- Permanent Move into Alabama
- Loss of Health Insurance Coverage Due to Death
Note: Please call the Customer Service number on the back of your ID card if this applies to you.
- Loss of Health Insurance Coverage
Note: This does not include loss of a short-term plan or loss of minimum essential coverage due to non-payment of premiums.
- No Longer Eligible for Subsidy
- Gain of Citizenship or Nationality
- American Indians or Alaskan Natives
If you have a question about a qualifying life event, please call 1-855-890-7416.
