  Self: "Can't you enroll through healthcare.gov for awhile until you find something through your employer?"
  User (rammer39): "enrollment ended in april"
  mt_thoughts (mt_thoughts): "Healthcare.gov is not the only option to get insurance. You just won't get any subsidies. Call an insurance agent in your area and get a quote for a policy. You can get a very basic policy that can at least cover you to your enrollment opens up again. "
