Who we help

Built for people without employer coverage

You work for yourself, or between jobs, or part-time. We specialize in exactly this gap.

Freelancers & 1099

Self-employed workers

Variable income makes subsidy planning tricky. We match you with plans that flex around your earnings and minimize your tax-time risk.

Rideshare, delivery, gig

Gig economy workers

If your employer calls you a "contractor," they're not covering your health. ACA plans exist specifically for this situation.

Ages 50–64

Early retirees

Too young for Medicare, too expensive without subsidies. This group took the hardest hit in 2026. We know every option available.

Job loss or transition

Between jobs

COBRA is usually overpriced. A Marketplace SEP plan is often 60–70% cheaper. You have 60 days from losing coverage to act.

Sole proprietors, S-corps

Small business owners

No group plan. You may qualify for ACA subsidies and a self-employed health insurance deduction that stacks your savings.

Part-time, families

No employer benefits

Family size and income both affect what you pay. We run the numbers across every available plan to find what actually saves you money.

Coverage options

Plans we can help you find

Not tied to one carrier. We compare across all available options to find the right fit.

Most popular

ACA Marketplace plans

Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum tiers. Covers all 10 essential benefits. Cannot deny for pre-existing conditions. Subsidies available for incomes 100–400% FPL.

Budget bridge

Short-term health plans

Lower premiums for healthy adults between jobs or waiting for open enrollment. Flexible start dates, no enrollment period required. Not ACA-compliant.

Tax-smart

HDHP + HSA combo

High-deductible plan paired with a Health Savings Account. Triple tax advantage — and HSA contributions can reduce your MAGI to increase subsidy eligibility.

Supplemental

Critical illness + accident

Lump-sum cash benefits for covered events like cancer, stroke, or accidents. Pairs with HDHPs to fill gaps. Does not replace major medical coverage.

Customer reviews

Real people, real results

From freelancers to early retirees — here's what they found.

★★★★★

"My premium tripled when subsidies expired. They found me a Silver plan for $40 less per month than I paid in 2025. I had no idea I still qualified."

"Left my corporate job to consult and had no idea what to do. The agent explained everything — subsidies, deductibles, HSAs. Enrolled in 20 minutes."

★★★★★

"62 years old, retired early, completely panicked about 2026 premiums. They found me better coverage than my old employer plan. Couldn't believe it."

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Yes — baseline premium tax credits still exist for households earning between 100% and 400% FPL (roughly $15,000–$62,000 for a single person). What expired were the enhanced subsidies that also covered higher-income households. The only way to know exactly how much you qualify for is to get a quote with your actual income and zip code.
Open enrollment ended January 15, 2026. However, many people qualify for a Special Enrollment Period due to life events: losing job-based coverage, moving, getting married, having a baby, or income changes. If you recently lost employer coverage, you likely have a 60-day window right now. Short-term plans are available year-round with no enrollment requirement.
Nothing. Licensed insurance agents are paid by carriers — not by you. Your plan price is the same whether you go through us or directly through the insurer. The only difference is you get a knowledgeable person who compares every option and handles your enrollment at no charge.
ACA Marketplace plans must cover all 10 essential health benefits, can't deny for pre-existing conditions, and qualify for subsidies. Short-term plans are cheaper but can deny for pre-existing conditions, don't cover maternity or mental health, and have duration limits. If you have ongoing health needs, an ACA plan is almost always the better choice.
Yes. Self-employed individuals can deduct 100% of health insurance premiums directly from gross income. Pairing an HDHP with an HSA adds a second layer — HSA contributions reduce your MAGI, which can increase your subsidy eligibility. Our agents walk through how to structure this to minimize your total annual cost.
No. When you submit through OwnYourCoverage, one licensed advisor from our network reaches out. We don't sell leads to multiple brokers. You're never required to purchase — the call is informational until you decide to enroll.

You deserve coverage you actually understand.

Two minutes to see your real options. No jargon. No pressure. Just a licensed expert and your actual choices laid out clearly.
