Below, we’ve outlined the detailed steps and clarified the roles involved, whether you’re using Take Command or external platforms like state marketplaces.
Overview of Enrollment Options
Enroll through Take Command: If you’ve selected a plan available on the Take Command portal, you can complete your application directly on the platform. Depending on the plan type: - Easy Enroll Plans: Submit your enrollment entirely within Take Command. Your application is forwarded to the carrier, and your setup continues through the platform. - Self Enroll Plans: You will need to complete enrollment directly with your insurance carrier for the designated plan year.

Take Command will verify the coverage for reimbursement processing.
