About the ACA marketplace in New York

New York operates its own state-based marketplace, NY State of Health. New York also offers the Essential Plan — a low-cost or no-cost coverage option for residents whose income falls between Medicaid eligibility and standard marketplace subsidy thresholds. The Essential Plan covers most of the same benefits as marketplace plans at significantly lower cost; we help eligible clients evaluate whether Essential Plan or a marketplace plan is the better fit.
