Which ACA plans are available in Texas?
In Texas the federal Marketplace (HealthCare.gov) offers Bronze, Silver and Gold plans from multiple insurers. Texas has a wide variety of insurers that vary by county. Our agents can show you all the options available in your area.
Why didn't Texas expand Medicaid and how does it affect me?
Texas is one of the states that did not expand Medicaid, which means adults without children and with very low income can fall into a 'coverage gap'. If your income is above the Marketplace minimum, you may qualify for ACA subsidies. Our agents determine your specific situation.
What is the Silver plan with CSR in Texas?
Cost-Sharing Reductions (CSR) are additional discounts available ONLY on Silver plans for families with income between 100%-250% of the federal poverty level. In Texas, choosing Silver instead of Bronze can result in greater real coverage at the same cost or less.
When can I enroll in an ACA plan in Texas?
Open Enrollment generally runs from November 1 to January 15. If you have a qualifying life event (loss of coverage, marriage, birth, move to Texas), you can enroll at any time of the year during a Special Enrollment Period.
