You can only sign up for ACA plans during the so called, "Open season" which is a limited time each year. So if you find out you have an expensive illness you could be paying for treatment out of your pocket for a while before you can sign up for a plan during open season. You might be able to get around that by manufacturing a "life event" ie get married or have a kid etc... And there by be able to get an ACA plan immediately. Defiantly risky though.
- cynwoody 13y agoDefiantly risky That's a species of risk that is admirable and patriotic! A safer plan might be to buy non-qualifying catastrophic coverage in case you get in an accident or develop a serious illness outside the open enrollment period. Safer, but more expensive, than relying on hacking the system to bail you out if shit happens.
