Question:    How do I choose a health plan on the Obamacare Health Insurance Marketplace?

Answer:      Below are some basic questions to consider in evaluating a health insurance plan.

  • Is there out-of-network coverage?
  • Does that out-of-network spending accrue toward the member’s out-of-pocket maximum?
  • Do members need a primary care physician gatekeeper?
  • Are my current doctors participants in the plan’s ‘network’?
