How can I save money on my health insurance plan in Texas?

You can do a few things to lower your health insurance costs. Choose a bronze plan if you don't need much care, check whether you qualify for premium tax credits or other financial help and use in-network doctors and hospitals.

Consider Bronze Level Plans

Bronze level plans may have your lowest premium cost. If you're normally healthy, don't regularly visit the doctor and don't have dependents, a bronze level health insurance plan could help keep your monthly costs low.

Check Your Subsidy Savings

If you qualify, premium tax credits could help you lower your monthly health insurance bill. Your savings amount depends on your household size, annual income and ZIP code. Check if you qualify when you start shopping.

Use Covered Care and Medicine

Choosing an in-network provider, especially when you have an HMO plan, is normally your cheapest care option. Before you enroll in a plan, check that it covers the doctors, hospitals and prescriptions you prefer.
