Health insurance plans in Broward County, Florida (2026)

I pulled every 2026 marketplace plan sold in Broward County, Florida out of the official CMS plan file. There are 197 plans from ten carriers, and a 40 year old in Broward pays $681 a month at full price for the benchmark silver plan. That puts Broward in the middle of the 20 Florida counties I track, with 9 cheaper and 10 pricier. Across all 79 counties and parishes I track in 24 states, 27 have a higher benchmark. Cigna also sells in Broward now and is leaving for 2027, so some of your neighbors have to switch plans this fall. Below are the carriers, the plan counts, the full prices before subsidy, and what I think the numbers mean if you live in Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Pembroke Pines, Coral Springs or anywhere else in the county.

Who sells marketplace plans in Broward County

No Florida county on my list has more carriers than Broward County, with ten (tied with Orange County and Seminole County). The biggest lineup in Broward belongs to Florida Blue with 65 plans, about 33 percent of everything on offer.

Broward plan counts from the CMS 2026 landscape file (county FIPS 12011, Rating Area 6). Bronze includes expanded bronze, and companies CMS lists under more than one legal issuer are grouped with the legal names underneath.

Leaving Broward County for 2027

Cigna sells 13 of the 197 plans in Broward County this year. Cigna is leaving the ACA individual market in every state where it sells, on and off exchange, for 2027. After that exit, nine carriers are left from the 2026 Broward lineup: Florida Blue, Ambetter Health, Molina Healthcare, UnitedHealthcare, Oscar, AvMed, Wellpoint, AmeriHealth Caritas Next and 22 Health. If you are enrolled with Cigna in Broward, you will get a notice this fall. If you do nothing you are moved to a replacement plan picked on price and metal level, and nothing in that process checks your doctors or prescriptions.

What it costs in Broward County before any subsidy

These are the full monthly prices, before any premium tax credit, for the cheapest Broward plan at each metal level. I show the sticker price because it is what your subsidy is subtracted from, and most people who enroll in Broward pay less, often a lot less.

Monthly premium, full priceAge 21Age 40Age 60Couple, both 40Couple 40 + 2 kids
Lowest bronze$392$501$1,064$1,002$1,602
Lowest silver$530$677$1,438$1,354$2,165
Benchmark silver (second lowest)$533$681$1,447$1,362$2,178
Lowest gold$488$623$1,324$1,247$1,993
Lowest platinum$822$1,050$2,230$2,100$3,357

Benchmark silver is the second lowest of the 75 silver premiums listed for Broward. The last column is two adults aged 40 plus two children.

What these numbers mean if you live in Broward County

The gold row is the surprise in Broward County. The cheapest gold plan for a 40 year old, $623 a month, is $54 cheaper than the cheapest silver plan at $677. That happens because Florida carriers load the cost of the extra silver discounts into silver premiums. If your income is too high for those discounts, silver is the worst value on the Broward shelf, and a gold deductible here tops out at $3,000.

In Broward County the benchmark is $180 above the cheapest bronze at age 40, and 38 of the other 78 counties and parishes I track have a narrower one. That gap decides whether bronze can be free, because your subsidy is the $681 benchmark minus what the government expects you to pay from your income. A 40 year old in Broward whose expected share is $180 a month or less would pay nothing for the cheapest bronze. At 60 the Broward gap grows to $382 and at 21 it shrinks to $141, which is why older enrollees are the ones most likely to find a $0 plan.

Prices barely differ between Broward and nearby Miami-Dade County. The benchmark differs by $3 a month at 40 and the cheapest bronze by $1. 22 Health sells in Broward and not in Miami-Dade County.

Broward plans by metal level, network and deductible

Metal levelPlans$0 deductibleDeductible range
Catastrophic10
Bronze70$6,150 to $10,600
Expanded Bronze5717$0 to $10,150
Silver750$400 to $9,500
Gold465$0 to $3,000
Platinum119
Total19731

By network type the 197 Broward plans break down as 146 HMO, 27 EPO, 14 PPO and 10 POS. Only 14 are PPOs, and every one of them comes from Florida Blue. If seeing specialists without a referral matters to you, that narrows the Broward shelf to one company. 31 plans in Broward have a $0 medical deductible (17 expanded bronze, 9 platinum and 5 gold). The 17 bronze ones among them still have out of pocket maximums of $9,900 to $10,600, so a $0 deductible does not mean a small bill.

Every Broward price on this page is before subsidies, and most enrollees pay less. For a 40 year old in Broward the premium tax credit is measured against the $681 benchmark. Estimate your own subsidy, or send me your ZIP and I will run the Broward numbers for you.
