You must enroll in a plan by December 31 to begin coverage on January 1. If you miss Open Enrollment, you will most likely not be able to get a private health insurance plan at any point during 2024 – even from an insurance broker.

IF YOU ARE CURRENTLY ACTIVE ON NJ FAMILYCARE PLEASE NOTE:
If you are currently active on NJ FamilyCare and have not received a termination letter, do not fill out this form, even if you believe you are no longer eligible. You will be eligible for a Special Enrollment Period to enroll in private health insurance once you receive a termination notice. If you need private insurance for 2024, please contact the LRRC for guidance.
If you receive a NJ FamilyCare renewal packet, do not ignore it!
All renewal packets must be returned by the due date.
