What Does Health Insurance Cover?
Health insurance is designed to help cover a wide range of medical expenses—everything from routine checkups and preventive care to emergency room visits, prescriptions, surgeries, and chronic condition management. Most plans also include mental health services and maternity care. The most common types of plans include HMOs (Health Maintenance Organizations), PPOs (Preferred Provider Organizations), and high-deductible health plans (HDHPs) often paired with Health Savings Accounts (HSAs). We’ll explain the trade-offs—like flexibility versus cost—and help you choose a plan that balances coverage, provider access, and affordability so you’re never caught off guard when it matters most.

What if I miss open enrollment?
You may still qualify for Medicaid or other special plans. We’ll help you understand your options.
