# Open Enrollment Prep Checklist

- [ ] Update your income estimate for next year (raises, new clients, slow season)
- [ ] Re-check that your doctors are still in your plan's network — networks change
- [ ] Re-check your prescriptions on the plan's formulary
- [ ] Compare your plan's renewal against at least two alternatives
- [ ] If self-employed: bring your Schedule C net, not your gross
- [ ] Households near subsidy thresholds: estimate carefully — small changes matter
- [ ] Enroll before the deadline; auto-renewal is not always the best deal
