INDIVIDUAL HEALTH INSURANCE

Help secure your family’s future.

In our Insurance Marketplace, you’ll find a diverse array of health options from top providers tailored to suit you and your family. We understand the uniqueness of each individual, ensuring you have a selection of health plans to cater to your lifestyle and financial needs.

Individual & Family Health Insurance

Commonly referred to as ‘Obamacare plans,’ these major medical insurance options comply with the ACA’s essential coverage standards and may qualify for reduced premiums with government assistance. Check your eligibility.

Unable to find form

Non-ACA Health Insurance

On the other hand, ‘short-term health insurance,’ also known as non-ACA plans, offers an economical choice for individuals in good health without specific needs like maternity, mental health, substance abuse, or preexisting conditions coverage. Enrollment isn’t limited to specific periods; applications are accepted at any time.

Please note: Non-ACA or short-term health insurance requires medical underwriting and excludes coverage for preexisting conditions. It does not fulfill ACA minimum essential requirements and availability varies by state.

Please note that if your deadline occurs on a week end you should submit your application to us by noon on the Friday before or if it occurs on a week day please submit before noon on day prior to the final day to ensure that the application is processed and you receive your requested issue date

Am I able to enroll my dependents if I waive coverage due to having other coverage?

Yes, this is available to you and your dependents. Spouses and children may enroll even if you waive the coverage.

Costs & Savings

Do I have to meet my deductible before I pay a copay?

Most services where a co-pay is noted the service is covered before you meet your deductible and the deductible is waived. There may be a few exceptions where you will have to meet a deductible prior to your copays. For example, for certain Rx tiers you may have a separate Rx deductible prior to paying a copay. In these cases, you pay up to the Rx deductible before the copays apply. You will want to review the SBC for full coverage details.

When does my deductible apply?

For any service not covered by a co-pay you pay up to your deductible at the “negotiated” (lower) rate – then you pay your coinsurance % (0, 10, 20 or 30 percent usually) until you reach a total cost (including deductible) which is called your out of pocket maximum – after that you are covered 100% for covered services for the balance of the year.

What does the term “Out of Pocket Maximum” refer to?

OOPM is the most that you pay for covered services before the carrier covers at 100%. The OOPM includes the deductible, copays, coinsurance and Rx. 

Networks

PPO

Can receive care from any doctor you choose, no referral for specialty care (except UHC FL), may use out-of-network doctors – but may have to pay addition fees. PPO plans typically have higher monthly premium.

POS

Very similar to a PPO. Biggest difference is the contract between the insurance carrier and healthcare providers.

HMO

Must pre-select an approved Primary Care Physician, referrals are needed and for most plans there are no out of network benefits except for qualifying emergencies. HMO plans typically have lower monthly premiums.

EPO

Hybrid network that has limitations that vary based on the carrier. In some instances, you would need to get referrals and may not have coverage for out-of-network. These plans typically have a lower monthly premium.
