Quick Check

Could you get help paying for coverage?

Help with premiums depends on your household size and income. Enter yours to see where you stand for 2027.

An estimate only, based on 2026 federal poverty guidelines used for 2027 coverage. Eligibility also depends on things like access to affordable work coverage and immigration status.

Plan Levels

Bronze, Silver, Gold: what's the difference?

Every level covers the same benefits. What changes is how you split the cost: more in premiums, or more when you get care.

Bronze

Plan pays about 60%

Lowest premium, highest costs when you get care. Good if you rarely see a doctor.

Silver

Plan pays about 70%

The middle ground, and the only tier with extra savings for lower incomes.

Gold

Plan pays about 80%

Higher premium, lower deductibles and copays. Good if you use care often.

Platinum

Plan pays about 90%

Highest premium, lowest costs at the doctor. Not offered in every area.

Percentages are the average share of covered costs the plan pays for a typical person. For 2027, no ACA plan can make you pay more than $12,000 for one person or $24,000 for a family in network in a year.

What's Covered

Every ACA plan covers these 10 essentials

Marketplace plans are full major medical coverage. They can’t turn you down or charge you more for a pre-existing condition, and there’s no yearly or lifetime limit on these essential benefits.

Leaving a Job?

Marketplace, COBRA or short-term: which fits?

Questions

What people ask us about health insurance

Yes, if you have a qualifying life event, such as losing health coverage, moving, getting married, having a baby or aging off a parent’s plan at 26. You usually have 60 days from the event to enroll.

Report it to the Marketplace right away. Your tax credit is based on your estimated income, and starting with 2026 taxes, there’s no cap on paying back extra credit if you earned more than you estimated.

Not federally, and Michigan doesn’t have its own. But going without coverage means paying the full cost of any care you need.

It depends on the plan’s network. HMOs and EPOs use a set network, while PPOs let you go out of network at a higher cost. We’ll check your doctors before you pick a plan.

They’re not insurance. Members share costs, but payment isn’t guaranteed, and they don’t have to cover pre-existing conditions or follow ACA rules. Ask us how they compare before you join one.

No. Plan prices are the same whether you enroll through us or on your own, and our help is free.

2027 Open Enrollment · Nov 1 – Jan 15

We’ll check your doctors and prescriptions, see what help you qualify for and compare plans side by side, so you can choose with confidence. In-person or virtual.
