Intro to our Shopping Platform

Choosing a health plan can feel like solving a puzzle with missing pieces. Too many options, too much fine print, and not enough time to figure it all out. That’s why we’re here—to make the process simple and to help you find the plan you want.

‍

With your ICHRA benefit, you have 60 days from your start date to pick a health plan. And you’ve got options—most regions in the U.S. offer 4+ insurance carriers and over 50 plans to choose from! That’s a lot and we’ve got tools to help you narrow it down.

‍

How to find the right plan:

• Know the terms - Premiums, deductible, co-pay—health insurance has a separate language of its own. Know what the terms mean before you jump in. Check out this article.
• Think about your budget – What are the premium and deductible amounts that fit your comfort zone.
• Filter your options – Use search tools to find plans that match your needs
• Check your medicines & doctors – Make sure to include the doctors you want and medicines you take.
