How Do Quotes Differ Between States?
State of residence is the second most important factor after age in health insurance pricing. Carrier availability, state insurance regulations, local healthcare costs, and ACA marketplace competition all affect your premium significantly.
- High competition states (FL, TX, GA, AZ): More carriers, lower U65 private premiums to often $150 to $320 for a 40-year-old
- Medium competition states (NC, VA, CO, OH): Good carrier options, moderate premiums to $220 to $380 for a 40-year-old
- Lower competition states: Fewer carrier options, higher premiums to $280 to $420 for a 40-year-old
- State-run exchanges (CA, WA, IL, CO): ACA plans may have additional state subsidies on top of federal credits
The single most common thing we hear from new clients is that they had no idea how much cheaper their options were outside the ACA marketplace. Someone comes in paying $520 a month for an unsubsidized ACA plan and we find them a U65 private plan for $295. That is $2,700 a year they were overpaying.
