Health insurance plans in Broward County, Florida (2027)

I pulled every 2027 marketplace plan sold in Broward County, Florida out of the official CMS plan file. There are 173 plans from eight carriers, and a 40 year old in Broward pays $761 a month at full price for the benchmark silver plan. Only two of the other 19 Florida counties I track have a higher one. Across all 79 counties and parishes I track, 17 have a higher benchmark. That is $80 more than the 2026 benchmark of $681, a change of 12 percent. Molina Healthcare and Cigna sold plans in Broward in 2026 and have no plans here for 2027, so some of your neighbors have to switch 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 eight (tied with Orange County and Seminole County). Florida Blue alone accounts for 71 of the 173 plans in Broward, 41 percent of the shelf, so a lot of what you see when you shop is one company's lineup in different metal levels.

What changed in Broward County for 2027

Molina Healthcare and Cigna together sold 34 of the 197 plans in Broward County in 2026 and have no plans here in the 2027 CMS file. If you were enrolled with either company, you should have a notice by now. 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. Broward now has eight carriers and 173 plans, against ten carriers and 197 plans in 2026.

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$432$552$1,171$1,103$1,764
Lowest silver$591$756$1,605$1,512$2,417
Benchmark silver (second lowest)$596$761$1,616$1,522$2,434
Lowest gold$566$724$1,537$1,448$2,314
Lowest platinum$891$1,139$2,419$2,279$3,643

Benchmark silver is the second lowest of the 61 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, $724 a month, is $32 cheaper than the cheapest silver plan at $756. 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 $3,500.

In Broward County the benchmark is $210 above the cheapest bronze at age 40, and 33 of the other 78 counties and parishes I track have a wider one. That gap decides whether bronze can be free, because your subsidy is the $761 benchmark minus what the government expects you to pay from your income. A 40 year old in Broward whose expected share is $210 a month or less would pay nothing for the cheapest bronze. At 60 the Broward gap grows to $445 and at 21 it shrinks to $164, which is why older enrollees are the ones most likely to find a $0 plan.

Compared with nearby Miami-Dade County, the Broward benchmark is $19 higher at 40 and the cheapest bronze is $3 lower. 22 Health sells in Broward and not in Miami-Dade County.

Broward plans by metal level, network and deductible

Metal levelPlans$0 deductibleDeductible range
Catastrophic20
Bronze50$8,500 to $12,000
Expanded Bronze5312$0 to $10,150
Silver612$0 to $11,925
Gold419$0 to $3,500
Platinum119
Total17332

By network type the 173 Broward plans break down as 129 HMO, 19 EPO, 14 PPO and 11 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. 32 plans in Broward have a $0 medical deductible (12 expanded bronze, 9 gold, 9 platinum and 2 silver). The 12 bronze ones among them still have out of pocket maximums of $12,000, 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 $761 benchmark. Estimate your own subsidy, or send me your ZIP and I will run the Broward numbers for you.
