If you’re enrolled in a 2017 health insurance plan, here’s what you need to know to get the full benefit of your health coverage and keep it up-to-date:
Activate your coverage & pay your first month’s premium
You must pay your first premium directly to the insurance company — not to the Health Insurance Marketplace®. Your coverage won’t start until the insurance company gets your payment.
Insurance companies handle payments differently. Follow your insurer’s instructions about how and when to make your payment.
