If your plan is leaving

If your insurer stops selling marketplace plans in Florida for 2027, here's what happens and what to do about it.

Read your insurer's notice

Your insurer writes to you about 2027 before open enrollment. If it says your plan is ending, choose a new one between November 1 and December 15.

If you do nothing

When your insurer has no plan left in your area, the exchange can move you to a similar plan from another insurer. That plan may not include your doctors, so it's better to choose it yourself.

The dates that matter

Choose by December 15 and the new plan starts January 1. Choosing later in open enrollment, through January 15, means a February 1 start.

What else changes in Florida for 2027

Florida has the largest marketplace in the country: 4,538,772 people picked a plan for 2026, nearly 1 in 5 of the national total.

Higher prices requested

Insurers asked for average increases from 3.87% to 39.14% for 2027, depending on the insurer. Final rates aren't published yet. Your own change depends on your plan, age and county, and on any tax credit.

Tax credits end for some immigrants

From 2027, the only immigrants who can get a premium tax credit are lawful permanent residents, Cuban and Haitian entrants and COFA migrants. Other lawfully present immigrants can still enroll, at full price.

Medicaid and the coverage gap in Florida

Florida hasn't expanded Medicaid. By KFF's estimate from 2024 data, about 267,000 uninsured adults fall in the gap between Florida Medicaid and the marketplace.

Who is in the gap

Adults whose income is too high for Florida Medicaid but below the federal poverty line. Marketplace tax credits generally start at the poverty line, so these adults get neither.

If you're in the gap

You can still buy a marketplace plan at its full price. Send us a message and we'll go through what's available to you.

For Florida employers

A Florida employer can use an ICHRA, now also called a CHOICE arrangement, to reimburse employees tax-free for the individual plans they choose, on HealthCare.gov or off the exchange.

Questions from Floridians

My insurer is leaving Florida's marketplace. What do I do?

Choose a new plan during open enrollment, by December 15 for a January 1 start. We can line up the plans sold in your county against your doctors and prescriptions.

What happens if I don't pick a new plan?

If your insurer has no plans left where you live, the exchange can place you in a similar plan from another insurer. Check that plan's doctors and drugs, or choose your own by December 15.

Why can't I get a tax credit if my income is very low?

Tax credits generally start at the federal poverty line, and Florida hasn't expanded Medicaid to the adults below it. That leaves about 267,000 uninsured adults in a coverage gap, by KFF's estimate.
