CMS is expanding the timeframe for people who are kicked off of Medicaid to select an #ACA exchange plan via Special Enrollment from 60 days to 150 days (60 before / 90 after).
That'll be a huge thing once the Public Health Emergency ends & millions lose Medicaid eligibility.

CMS is also proposing to let exchanges offer an earlier effective start date to avoid people having up to a 16-day coverage gap if they lose coverage mid-month. This, again, is probably mostly triggered by the impending end of the PHE, but it applies in other cases as well.
ACA Navigators/assisters will be very happy to hear that CMS plans on letting them actually enroll people in coverage during door-to-door visits (right now they can offer information/assistance at the door but can't actually enroll them, which seems a bit silly).
Right now, if an enrollee discovers that there was an error/omission in their policy description after the fact, they or their dependent has to prove it in order to be eligible to switch plans. CMS is proposing allowing them to do so if a 3rd party finds/proves the error as well.
CMS is proposing to use the honors system re. household income attestation in cases where they were previously below the tax filing threshold, had a change to their household composition due to marriage/divorce/birth, etc.
