Assurant
Now available both on & off the Marketplace, it features the Aetna Signature PPO Network, which is the largest network nationwide. Pricing is higher, but if you seek medical care in 2 different states, and want to keep your doctors, this is a great plan for you.
Blue Cross Blue Shield and Blue Care Network
Added "Extra" plans which offer first dollar office visit and generic prescription drug copays. Blue Cross also added a Platinum plan. Blue Care Network was disappointing for some as the lowest price plan but it came with severe network limitations. Blue Cross enrolled 77% of the plans on the marketplace last fall. Service issues were common due to high volume of business.
Humana
Their HSA with a $7,300 maximum out of pocket was popular last year. New plans are available for Kent County residents utilizing Metro Health System on & off the Marketplace. Metro Detroit has additional network options which affect rates but offer more choices.
Priority Health
#1 in customer service, this Michigan based carrier does a fine job. They actually lowered their rates this year. Many are moving their coverage to Priority Health now. They own their own network and borrow PHCS network for out of state coverage. Choose their PPO if you travel outside of Michigan.
United HealthOne
The Platinum plan was a popular plan this year off the Marketplace. Their new network was somewhat limiting and was expanded this year. UHC joined the Marketplace in Metro Detroit.
Anthem Indiana/Ohio
The sent fairly high rate increases so we anticipate competition to enter soon.
