Jacksonville Open Enrollment 2027
Open enrollment for 2027 coverage runs November 1, 2026 – January 15, 2027. Outside that window, Jacksonville residents need a qualifying life event to buy or switch a marketplace plan.
| 2027 Open Enrollment | Date |
|---|---|
| Open Enrollment opens | November 1, 2026 |
| Last day to enroll for coverage starting January 1 | December 15, 2026 |
| Open Enrollment closes (coverage starts February 1) | January 15, 2027 |
Most Jacksonville residents live in Duval County, where plan choices and prices are set by county and ZIP code. Florida uses the federal marketplace, HealthCare.gov. A 2025 rule that would have ended enrollment on December 15 was struck down — here is why the deadline is January 15.
What changes for Jacksonville enrollees in 2027
- Smaller credits, and a cliff at 400%. With the enhanced credits gone, a single adult in Jacksonville earning $35,000 is expected to pay about $219/mo toward the benchmark Silver plan in 2027 (credit $256/mo). Earn over $63,840 and there is no credit at all, so at today's $475 benchmark you would pay full price — see what else changed.
- Compare before you renew. If you do nothing you are usually re-enrolled, but Florida Blue and other Jacksonville carriers can change premiums, networks and drug lists for 2027. Shop again before December 15, and update your 2027 income estimate so you are not repaying credit at tax time.
- Medicaid: Florida has not expanded Medicaid. Marketplace tax credits start at 100% of the poverty level (about $15,960 for a single adult); below that, adults can fall into a coverage gap — a licensed agent can walk you through options.
