How can I protect my personal information while enrolling in Marketplace coverage through a non-Marketplace website?

Published: Sep 29, 2025

Here are some tips on protecting your personal information if you choose to enroll in Marketplace coverage through a non-Marketplace website:

  • Beware of sales techniques that pressure you to make quick decisions.
  • Use this HealthCare.gov tool to find certified enrollment partner websites approved by the Marketplace.
  • Be cautious in engaging with advertisements that offer cash, gifts, or other perks. The information you provide through these advertisements could be used for other purposes without your consent.
  • Do not share your personal information unless you have confirmed that you are sharing it with a Navigator, certified assister, or licensed agent/broker.
  • Beware of schemes that request payment for assistance with Marketplace enrollment.
