Individual & family plans in Maryland
Maryland runs its own health insurance marketplace, Maryland Health Connection. Every Marketplace plan covers essential health benefits like doctor visits, hospital care, prescriptions, maternity care and mental health services, and no one can be turned down because of a pre-existing condition.
Prices depend on your age, your county, whether you use tobacco, and the plan level you choose. Many Maryland families qualify for a premium tax credit that lowers their monthly payment, and households with modest incomes can get extra savings on Silver plans.
Maryland has expanded Medicaid. If your income is low, Medicaid may be a better fit than a paid plan, and we'll tell you if that's the case.
