Indiana comprehensive heath care coverage provides benefits similar to expensive group plans available through employers. In addition to the standard preventive, major medical, and hospital benefits, physician charges, medications, accidents, illnesses, maternity, and mental illness are included. Physical, speech, occupational, and hearing, and orthopedic therapy are covered on qualified plans. All-inclusive plans are offered both on and off the Marketplace and both inpatient and outpatient services are included.

Anthem Blue Cross, Ambetter, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, and CareSource offer complete benefits to employees of groups, individuals and families in Indiana. It is the most common type of medical coverage. We assist you with finding the most affordable policies available to consumers, determining if you are eligible for a federal tax subsidy, and applying so you are approved as quickly as possible. No medical questions are asked during Open Enrollment, and a guaranteed effective date can be selected. Note: Aetna began offering Exchange plans in the state last year.

Policies can be kept as long as the premium payment is made. Unlimited lifetime benefits are provided with no annual maximums. Special OE periods are often created for pandemics (COVID-19) and additional situations that qualify for a “Special Enrollment Period (SEP). Medicaid qualifiers can apply for Marketplace benefits but will not receive a federal subsidy. “Dual” Medicare Advantage contracts are available to Senior applicants that qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid.

Humana, Medical Mutual, and MDwise no longer offer under-65 private plans in the Hoosier State. However, many of these carriers (and others) offer employer-provided plans along with Senior Medicare plans. Additional Medigap benefits are offered through Supplement, Advantage, and Part D prescription drug plans. Other ancillary options, including dental, vision, and hearing, are often available through Advantage contracts.

The 2025 Senior Medicare Open Enrollment period begins October 15th and ends December 7th. Many Medicare Advantage (MA) plans provide comprehensive benefits along with several ancillary perks. Prescription drug benefits are covered on most MA plans, and $0 rates are widely available.

We created this website to educate customers and simplify the process of applying for quality affordable healthcare. We take the time to investigate and find the comprehensive plans that not only match your budget, but also provide the coverage you are most likely to utilize. Children require different preventative coverage than adults, so we customize your benefits to closely match budget and policy and carrier availability. Maternity and prenatal benefits are also included on all qualified plans. Newborns can be added to a parent’s policy with pre-existing conditions covered.

The Best Prices

The rates you view on this website are the lowest rates filed by each carrier for 2025 with the Indiana Department of Insurance. If you already have an in-force policy, we can evaluate your best options, which may include staying with your present company. If you are eligible for a federal subsidy to use for Marketplace coverage, we will calculate and explain your financial aid, and show you the policies that will maximize your assistance. If you are eligible for Medicare, a Supplement, Advantage, and Part D prescription drug plan should be reviewed.

Depending on your personal or family situation, reducing your potential out-of-pocket costs, and lowering deductibles and copays, are typically very beneficial. We show you the comprehensive policy options that keep your premiums low but still provide the highest level of quality benefits available. Note: Deductibles, copays, and maximum out-of-pocket expenses reduce for Silver-Tier plans when “cost-sharing” is offered. The maximum deductible and out-of-pocket expense limit is currently $9,200.

Household members must earn between 100% to 250% of the federal poverty level to automatically earn Silver-tier out-of-pocket expense reductions. Deductibles can reduce to $0 and out-of-pocket costs can reduce to less than $3,000. When taking advantage of this cost-sharing option, it is common for office visit and prescription drug copays to reduce. Urgent Care copays may also reduce. Other tiers do not offer “cost-sharing.”

Don’t Forget About HSAs

Hoosier Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) provide solid benefits after a deductible has been satisfied. Although office visits (other than preventive visits) and prescriptions are subject to the deductible, with most HSA plans, 100% of expenses are covered after the deductible. Network repricing discounts will also reduce out-of-pocket expenses. Special exceptions are sometimes made for pandemics (COVID-19) and unusual medical circumstances.

For example, although an MRI is subject to a deductible, the actual cost could easily reduce from about $1,500-$2,000 to about $500-$1,200. The substantial savings also applies to x-rays, lab fees, hospital procedures, and many other diagnostic tests. Utilizing negotiated predetermined pricing can easily save thousands of dollars each year.

The combination of lower premiums, tax deductions and accumulating money for future medical expenses, makes this type of policy very popular. Anthem and UnitedHeathCare offer very competitive rates. Celtic and Aetna previously offered “Saver” HSA plans. But both carriers now no longer offer individual policies in the Hoosier State. Note: Ambetter and Celtic are owned by the same company (Centene).

ICHIA No Longer Available

The ICHIA (Indiana Comprehensive Health Insurance Association) was a low-cost option if you had been denied coverage, were chronically ill, or you had been unable to purchase a plan due to your medical history. When the ACA legislation was passed, the ICHIA and all other state high-risk pools became obsolete. The program ceased operations in January of 2014 after a three-month extension because of problems with the federal healthcare website. About 7,000 Hoosiers were covered on the plan, but soon became eligible for Marketplace or Medicaid coverage.

There were five policy options with deductibles ranging from $500 to $5,000. 75% of any net losses were paid by the state and 25% by participating insurers. It was  a very reliable comprehensive medical plan for single persons or entire families. The program began in 1981 and suffered substantial underwriting losses for many years. Its termination was welcomed by legislators and consumers.
