  • Turning 65 in Indianapolis? Your Initial Enrollment Period runs seven months around your birthday. Indiana SHIP (State Health Insurance Assistance Program) offers free counseling at 1-800-452-4800.
  • Buying your own plan? Shop through HealthCare.gov (federal Marketplace).
  • Medicaid questions? Indiana Family and Social Services Administration (FSSA) handles applications.

Indiana note: Indiana's Medicaid expansion population is covered under its own distinct name, the Healthy Indiana Plan (HIP), which -- unlike standard Medicaid in most states -- has historically included features like required monthly contributions (POWER accounts), so HIP eligibility and standard Medicaid eligibility aren't always the same conversation.
