The coverage gap stems from health insurers exiting or scaling back from previously serviced areas in the state. Affected policyholders will face auto re-enrollment if they do not purchase coverage when open enrollment commences Nov. 1.  

The OCI will hold enrollment information sessions throughout the state between Oct. 25 and Nov. 11.
