Who sells marketplace plans in Collier County
Collier County has the thinnest carrier lineup of the Florida counties on my list, four companies. Florida Blue alone accounts for 74 of the 124 plans in Collier, 60 percent of the shelf, so a lot of what you see when you shop is one company's lineup in different metal levels.
| Carrier | Plans | Bronze | Silver | Gold | Platinum | Network types |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Florida BlueFlorida Blue (BlueCross BlueShield FL), Florida Blue HMO (a BlueCross BlueShield FL company) | 74 | 25 | 25 | 14 | 9 | EPO 19, HMO 27, POS 14, PPO 14 |
| Ambetter Health | 19 | 6 | 7 | 6 | 0 | HMO 19 |
| UnitedHealthcare | 16 | 5 | 6 | 5 | 0 | HMO 16 |
| Wellpoint | 15 | 5 | 5 | 4 | 0 | HMO 15 |
Collier plan counts from the CMS 2027 landscape file (county FIPS 12021, Rating Area 11). Bronze includes expanded bronze, and companies CMS lists under more than one legal issuer are grouped with the legal names underneath.
What changed in Collier County for 2027
Molina Healthcare and Cigna together sold 29 of the 131 plans in Collier 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. Collier now has four carriers and 124 plans, against six carriers and 131 plans in 2026.
What it costs in Collier County before any subsidy
These are the full monthly prices, before any premium tax credit, for the cheapest Collier 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 Collier pay less, often a lot less.
| Monthly premium, full price | Age 21 | Age 40 | Age 60 | Couple, both 40 | Couple 40 + 2 kids |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lowest bronze | $443 | $567 | $1,203 | $1,133 | $1,811 |
| Lowest silver | $556 | $711 | $1,509 | $1,421 | $2,272 |
| Benchmark silver (second lowest) | $587 | $751 | $1,594 | $1,501 | $2,400 |
| Lowest gold | $613 | $783 | $1,663 | $1,567 | $2,504 |
| Lowest platinum | $1,452 | $1,855 | $3,940 | $3,710 | $5,931 |
Benchmark silver is the second lowest of the 43 silver premiums listed for Collier. The last column is two adults aged 40 plus two children.
What these numbers mean if you live in Collier County
Collier County is one of 32 of the 79 counties and parishes on my list where the metal levels are priced in the order you would expect. The cheapest gold at 40 is $783, which is $33 above the benchmark silver and $73 above the cheapest silver. In Collier the extra gold premium pays for a lower deductible rather than coming free.
In Collier County the benchmark is $184 above the cheapest bronze at age 40, and 37 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 $751 benchmark minus what the government expects you to pay from your income. A 40 year old in Collier whose expected share is $184 a month or less would pay nothing for the cheapest bronze. At 60 the Collier gap grows to $391 and at 21 it shrinks to $144, which is why older enrollees are the ones most likely to find a $0 plan.
Compared with nearby Lee County, the Collier benchmark is $86 lower at 40 and the cheapest bronze is $93 lower. AvMed sells in Lee County and not in Collier.
Collier plans by metal level, network and deductible
| Metal level | Plans | $0 deductible | Deductible range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Catastrophic | 2 | 0 | |
| Bronze | 2 | 0 | $11,750 to $11,975 |
| Expanded Bronze | 39 | 12 | $0 to $10,000 |
| Silver | 43 | 2 | $0 to $11,925 |
| Gold | 29 | 6 | $0 to $2,500 |
| Platinum | 9 | 6 | |
| Total | 124 | 26 |
By network type the 124 Collier plans break down as 77 HMO, 19 EPO, 14 POS and 14 PPO. 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 Collier shelf to one company. 26 plans in Collier have a $0 medical deductible (12 expanded bronze, 6 platinum, 6 gold and 2 silver). The 12 bronze ones among them still have out of pocket maximums of $11,800 to $12,000, so a $0 deductible does not mean a small bill.
Every Collier price on this page is before subsidies, and most enrollees pay less. For a 40 year old in Collier the premium tax credit is measured against the $751 benchmark. Estimate your own subsidy, or send me your ZIP and I will run the Collier numbers for you.
