Newly married and live in the IE, what did Reddit wish someone had told them about health coverage?
Nobody tells you there's a 60-day window after your wedding to enroll in health coverage. Most couples find out when it's too late.

Getting married or entering a domestic partnership qualifies you for a Special Enrollment Period through Covered California. You have 60 days from the date of your marriage to enroll—no need to wait for open enrollment.
IEHP's low-cost plans for couples and families in Riverside and San Bernardino counties include preventive care, telehealth and Community Wellness Centers throughout the IE.
Getting married can qualify you, and so do other life changes like having a baby, turning 26, moving to or within the Inland Empire and more.
See what you qualify for at IEHPCovered.org.
