Previously, we reported that all of the states who have their own state-based marketplace (SBM) were following the federal government’s lead in offering a Special Enrollment Period (SEP) for COVID. Last month, HHS indicated that they were going to be extending the COVID SEP through August 15, 2021. Many of the SBMs have also extended their COVID SEP. The current deadlines for all of the SBMs are as follows:
- California: December 31, 2021
