Your 2026 Open Enrollment Checklist

Beginning in fall and running into early winter, open enrollment allows individuals to change or enroll in a new health care plan through their employer or the health insurance marketplace. 

Whether individuals plan to stay with the same plan as last year or choose a new one, it is important to evaluate these plans and their network types, how they differ, and what best fits each person’s needs. 

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan has designed a tool kit to help individuals make informed decisions for the upcoming coverage year.

The Latest From Benefits of Blue

Safety net health care centers provide care to the uninsured and underinsured regardless of their ability to pay. They also help to keep people out of high-cost settings like emergency rooms and urgent care clinics.

With open enrollment underway, beware of Medicare enrollment scam tactics that urge you to buy extra coverage, pay a bill, or act immediately to avoid losing benefits.

Health care costs are so expensive that many Michigan small businesses are struggling to hire new employees, provide health insurance to existing employees, and invest in resources that would help them grow and succeed.
