California Health Insurance Quotes
California offers its residents several options for finding low-cost or free health coverage. Besides having a robust Affordable Care Act Health Marketplace, the state also administers its own version of Medicaid, called Medi-Cal. Both of these are run through Covered California.
California Marketplace Open Enrollment
Individuals and small businesses in California may apply for health insurance through the Affordable Care Act (ACA) during open enrollment. The CA healthcare marketplace offers a large variety of healthcare plans at different tiers. Your income level determines how much you will pay for your coverage. Covered California is California’s version of the healthcare marketplace.
California’s Open Enrollment is a time when anybody can apply for and potentially receive healthcare through the marketplace known as Obamacare. It is normally active from Nov. 1 through Jan. 31.

Having a Health Plan in California Makes Sense
When you have health coverage, you’re more likely to get routine checkups and preventive care, which helps you stay healthy and saves money on medical costs in the long run. Without a health policy, a short hospital stay could be costly if you become sick or injured, and you could be responsible for the entire bill.
A health plan can help protect your finances if you have a major medical incident. Serious diseases or accidents often require surgeries, treatments, and medications that can result in hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical expenses. Don’t get stuck without health coverage the next time you need medical care – let Freeway Insurance help you find an affordable health plan.
