Tips for Buying a Policy Through the Health Insurance Marketplace in South Dakota
While selecting a health insurance policy can be difficult, understanding your needs is important. Choose a plan that offers:
- Networks you want to use. Keep in mind: the more open you are about the doctors you see, the more plans you can choose from. HealthMarkets agents can help you find a network you like.
- Can you afford the deductible? Always choose a plan that’s within your budget. For example, a higher deductible may translate to a lower premium, but you have to meet the deductible amount prior to your insurance kicking in.
- Limitations you can handle. Be sure that the plan you choose doesn't have limitations that will make it impossible to get the care you need. Carefully review the terms of each plan before making a purchase. HealthMarkets can help decode the jargon for you.
