How Health Insurance Works
Health insurance is a contract with an insurance company that helps pay for medical care. Here's what to know before you choose health insurance in Florida.
Purpose
Health insurance helps individuals, families and employees manage the cost of doctor visits, hospital stays, prescriptions and preventive care.
Cost
Premiums depend on factors like age, health, coverage level and plan type. You may also pay copays and coinsurance, and staying in-network keeps costs lower.
HMO vs. PPO
HMO plans usually cost less but offer less flexibility. PPO plans let you see specialists without a referral, and that flexibility costs more. See the HealthCare.gov glossary for plan terms.
Deductibles
Your deductible is what you pay out of pocket before coverage kicks in. A high-deductible health plan (HDHP) can lower premiums and may pair with an HSA. The IRS Publication 969 explains HSA rules.
Preventive Care
Many plans include routine care such as annual checkups, screenings and vaccinations at little or no extra cost. Check your plan for details.
Using Your Benefits
Your doctor typically bills your insurance company directly. The insurer pays its share, and you pay any remaining balance.

Health Insurance FAQs
What's the difference between group and individual health insurance?
Group health insurance is purchased by an employer to cover its employees, and the employer typically pays part of the premium. Individual health insurance is purchased by a person to cover themselves, often because they're self-employed or don't have coverage through work.
Can a small business offer employee health insurance?
Yes. We help businesses of all sizes, from a handful of employees to larger teams. Eligibility rules vary by carrier and plan, and we'll show you exactly what your business qualifies for.
Who are individual health plans a good fit for?
Individual plans are a great fit for healthy adults who don't have employer coverage, including self-employed professionals, independent contractors, gig workers, people between jobs and early retirees.
How much does health insurance in Florida cost?
The cost of health insurance in Florida depends on your age, health, the plan type, your deductible and how much coverage you choose. Request a quote and a local advisor will give you real numbers based on your situation.
Should I choose an HMO or a PPO?
An HMO usually has lower premiums but requires you to stay in-network and get referrals for specialists. A PPO costs more but gives you more freedom to choose doctors. We'll help you weigh cost against flexibility.
