WHY DO I NEED HEALTH INSURANCE?

Who needs health insurance? You do! Here’s why and how signing up for a health plan can help protect your family and save you money.
 

Protect your finances 

Health insurance protects you from paying the full cost of medical treatment when you or your family becomes injured or sick. Most people can’t afford to pay for their family’s health care on their own. A typical doctor’s visit could cost hundreds of dollars while a trip to the emergency room (ER) could cost thousands. A multi-day hospital visit could even run hundreds of thousands of dollars in bills.
 

Take care of your health

It’s important to get the care you need when you’re sick or injured. Taking good care of your health can save money in the long run — and even save your life! A health plan is your ticket to that care, but it's also a great way to access preventive care treatments. Regular checkups, shots, vaccines, screenings, as well as mammograms and colonoscopy are all covered by a qualified health plans at no extra cost.
 

Be ready for anything

Life changes fast and you never know what to expect. When you have health insurance, you can feel confident that you and your family will have access to the care you need, when you need it.
 

Access affordable health insurance

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) made it easier for people to get covered by health plans. You can get health insurance on your own even if you don’t have access through a job. The ACA made plans less costly with premium subsidies for people who qualify based on income.
