The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) announced that starting today consumers can preview 2022 healthcare plans and prices on HealthCare.gov ahead of Marketplace Open Enrollment, which begins on November 1 and runs through January 15. This year, consumers will have more plan choices, and continue to benefit from lower costs thanks to President Biden’s American Rescue Plan (ARP), making it easier to find quality, affordable health care coverage. In fact, four out of five consumers will be able to find health care coverage for $10 or less per month with the extra savings made available under the ARP.
“Thanks to the American Rescue Plan, people shopping for health insurance this year through the Marketplaces will experience the widest variety of options with the lowest prices ever. We have also quadrupled the number of Navigators available to guide consumers through the sign-up process and extended the Open Enrollment Period. Through these continuous efforts, the Biden-Harris Administration will ensure affordable health care is in reach for everyone and provide peace of mind with coverage,” said Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra.
“Thanks to enhanced subsidies in the American Rescue Plan, quality health care coverage is more affordable and accessible than ever on Healthcare.gov and state-based Marketplaces,” said CMS Administrator Chiquita Brooks-LaSure. “Consumers can preview plans and prices now to find coverage that best meet their needs. We encourage consumers who need health insurance, and those with current Marketplace coverage to browse quality plans available in their area, which can be done without creating an account or filling out the application.”
