Under the Affordable Care Act, you can change your health care plan once a year during open enrollment. That period is about to end, and if you don’t have health insurance, you’ll want to get it. Not because of the tax hit – the mandate to buy insurance was ended under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act – but because going without health insurance is an enormous financial risk.
