Thanks to the passage of the Affordable Care Act applying for health insurance no longer involves medical underwriting (an evaluation of your medical records). The premiums you are shown are exactly what you will pay with one exception. Tobacco users pay more for their policies.
Since not all doctors and hospitals are in-network with all plans, it is important to give your insurance agent the names of your doctors and preferred hospitals. This allows your agent to research which company will be accepted by your healthcare providers and keep the overall amount spent on healthcare as low as possible.
Your rates are determined by your age and zip code as well as your choices with regard to the insurance company, type of policy, maximum out of pocket, coinsurance and deductible. Another factor is whether or not you qualify for a government subsidy. Due to the passage of the American Rescue Act of 2021, individuals and families can have higher annual Modified Adjusted Gross Income and still qualify for government subsidy to help them pay for their health insurance.
