Frequently asked questions
What is the cheapest ACA plan in Volusia County, Florida for 2026?
The cheapest Bronze plan a 40-year-old can enroll in is Florida Health Care Plans Gym Access IND Bronze HMO 1340 at $496 per month before subsidies. Plans sell through Healthcare.gov. Data refreshed 2026-04-19T08:08:55.462Z.
Can I use Healthcare.gov to enroll in a Florida ACA plan?
Yes. Florida uses the federally-facilitated Marketplace, which is HealthCare.gov. You enroll at healthcare.gov, and your federal premium tax credit and cost-sharing reductions are applied there. Florida does not operate a state-based exchange for PY2026.
How big is Florida's ACA Marketplace?
Florida has the largest ACA Marketplace in the country by a wide margin. About 4.54 million Floridians selected a 2026 plan during open enrollment, roughly one in every five Marketplace enrollees nationwide and about 29% of all HealthCare.gov (FFM) enrollment.
What is the Medicaid coverage gap in Florida, and does it affect me?
Florida has not expanded Medicaid, so roughly 800,000 to 1.4 million low-income adults fall into a coverage gap. If your household income is below 100% FPL and you are not pregnant, disabled, or covered by another Medicaid category, you likely won't qualify for either Medicaid or a Marketplace premium tax credit. A ballot initiative to expand Medicaid was postponed to 2028.
