If you’re shopping for an individual health insurance plan for the first time, it may feel a bit overwhelming. But don’t worry, it’s easier than you think to compare health insurance plans, get a free health insurance quote, and enroll in a plan.

How can I find an affordable health insurance plan?

Many of the people who apply for health insurance will receive financial assistance from the federal government to help purchase a health plan. These are known as subsidies. Find out if you may be eligible for a subsidy with our subsidy calculator.

Independence Blue Cross offers a wide variety of plans at different price points and in each of the metallic levels as defined by the Affordable Care Act.

Another important part of finding an affordable health insurance plan is to make sure you understand the total cost of health insurance, that is, to figure out what premiums and out-of-pocket costs you’re comfortable with and what your health care needs are.
