Knowing the following things will help you decide which health plan you should choose:
- Any medical conditions that you may have
- Names of medicines that you are taking
- The number of medical visits that you expect to have during the year
- Any medical procedures like surgery or therapy that you may need
- Names of doctors who are in network with the health plan
It is important to compare health plans and prices each year. Plans and prices can change, and your income and circumstances may have changed.
The Health Insurance Marketplace helps uninsured people enroll in the health coverage they deserve.
