CHEYENNE, WYO. – Health insurance is about more than deductibles, provider networks, and monthly premiums. It’s about protecting the people who matter most and having confidence that coverage will be there when you need it.

As Open Enrollment for 2027 begins, Wyoming residents can review their current coverage, explore new options, and choose a health plan that fits their needs for the year ahead.

For more than 80 years, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Wyoming (BCBSWY) has served Wyoming communities, helping individuals and families find coverage designed for life in Wyoming. As the state’s only homegrown health insurer, BCBSWY combines local service and support with access to one of the nation’s most trusted health care networks.

“Health care decisions are personal, and choosing the right coverage can have a meaningful impact on an individual’s health and financial well-being,” said Kris Urbanek, President and CEO of BCBSWY. “Our goal is to make the process easier by providing trusted coverage, local support and resources that help Wyoming families make informed decisions.”

Whether you’re enrolling for the first time, supporting a growing family, managing ongoing health needs, or preparing for the unexpected, the right health insurance helps protect your health and finances.

BCBSWY connects members to Wyoming’s largest provider network, along with nationwide coverage through the Blue Cross Blue Shield network when traveling outside the state. Members can use programs and resources that support their health, including preventive care benefits, wellness programs, care management support, and 24/7 virtual care through MDLIVE.

But what often makes the biggest difference is knowing help is close by.

BCBSWY’s Wyoming-based employees live and work in communities across the state. They understand the unique challenges of accessing care in rural areas and are available to answer questions, explain coverage options, and help members navigate their health care journey.

Looking Ahead to Open Enrollment

Open Enrollment for 2027 coverage begins Nov. 1, 2026. Residents can enroll in a new plan, renew existing coverage, or make changes for the upcoming year.

Cost assistance is still available for those who qualify. As part of preparing for enrollment, residents are encouraged to review their current coverage, consider any changes in their household or health care needs, and explore available options before selecting a plan.

Individuals who enroll by Dec. 15, 2026, will have coverage effective Jan. 1, 2027.
