Options for Healthcare in Maryland's Health Insurance Marketplace
Prior to shopping the health insurance marketplace in Maryland, speak to a knowledgeable, licensed agent. Here are some things to consider when working with your HealthMarkets agent:
- Determine your budget. Getting a policy with an affordable premium is important.
- See if you qualify for a subsidy. Many Maryland residents are happy to discover that they can get a tax credit to help cover the costs of insurance.
- Think about deductibles. A low premium can be great. But if your burden of up-front payments is more than you can afford, your policy isn’t helping you.
- Choose a plan that your provider accepts. Unless you're looking to change doctors, check for the policies that your provider accepts.
Don’t be confused by your coverage options and the health insurance marketplace in Maryland. We can help you find an affordable plan now.
