# 60-Day Special Enrollment Checklist

Losing job-based coverage opens a 60-day Special Enrollment Period from the
date coverage ENDS (often month end, not your last day worked).

- [ ] Confirm the exact date your current coverage ends
- [ ] Mark 60 days out — that is the firm deadline
- [ ] Gather proof of coverage loss (termination letter, COBRA notice)
- [ ] Estimate this calendar year's household income (include severance)
- [ ] List your doctors and prescriptions to check against plan networks
- [ ] Price COBRA against marketplace plans before defaulting to either
- [ ] Enroll with a start date that leaves no gap
