WELCOME TO GET COVERED SOUTH DAKOTA
Having health insurance is important but having health insurance that meets your specific needs can be life-changing. With the help of a trained Navigator, you can receive free support to find a plan that’s right for you.
Depending on your income and household size, you may have different insurance plan options available to you. It can confusing to figure it all out on your own, so if you have questions about health insurance, a Navigator is happy to help.
KNOW THE BASICS
Most people will need medical care at some point. Health insurance can help pay for these costs and protect you from high expenses. These are the things you should know before enrolling in a health insurance plan.
MEET YOUR LOCAL NAVIGATOR
Whether you have a question about health insurance, need help applying on the Health Insurance Marketplace, or want someone to help you find the right plan, your local health insurance navigator is here to support you.
SEE WHEN YOU CAN ENROLL
The annual open enrollment has ended. If you qualify for a special enrollment period (SEP)* because of a life change like getting married, having a baby, losing other coverage, or moving, you may apply for coverage outside of open enrollment.
SEE IF YOU CAN ENROLL
You may qualify for a Special Enrollment Period if you have certain life changes, or qualify for Medicaid or CHIP.
SEE IF YOU CAN CHANGE
You can change if you have certain life events — like moving, getting married, or having a baby or income range.
TAKE ACTION
You can change if you have certain life events — like moving, getting married, or having a baby or income range.

How we’re different:
Most companies that offer insurance shopping assistance have financial incentives, like commission, to sell insurance. Navigators are trained and certified by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) and cannot receive any financial compensation or kick-back for helping consumers enroll in a health insurance plan. We exist because we believe that everyone should have access to high-quality, affordable healthcare and think that insurance is an important part of that.
