Effective November 1st 2025, Illinois residents shopping for new health insurance coverage will no longer be using the healthcare.gov website.  Going forward, the new Illinois health insurance marketplace will be state-based and done through Get Covered Illinois (getcovered.illinois.gov).  There, you will be able to browse various health insurance plans, compare rates and networks, or apply for a subsidy to get a reduced premium – which is determined by a variety of factors, including income, age, coverage status and the number of people in your household.

Health insurance enrollment through Get Covered Illinois can be done in a number of ways, including by phone, online, or directly with a qualified health insurance agent.  For those looking for assistance over the phone with a Get Covered Illinois representative, you can call the marketplace directly at 866-311-1119.  They also offer a live chat service for those seeking answers to their questions.  Online enrollment is also available, for those who prefer not to provide their information over the phone.  You can visit getcovered.illinois.gov if you’re ready to sign up through their website.

If you’re new to the process of shopping for Illinois health insurance, want to avoid enrollment mistakes, or just not comfortable going about it on your own, you also have the option of working with a local health insurance agent.  At Premier Financial Insurance in Lisle, we’ve been helping individuals, couples and families navigate the healthcare marketplace since its onset, and staff a team of licensed agents who can help make the process fast, simple and stress-free.  We’ve been serving Illinois since 2003, and are well-versed in all aspects of traditional health insurance, Medicare, healthcare subsidies, group plans and more.
