Who sells marketplace plans in Greenville County

Greenville County has fewer carriers than Charleston County, the other South Carolina county I track, three against four. Across all 79 counties and parishes I track in 24 states, 62 have more carriers than Greenville. BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina alone accounts for 31 of the 48 plans in Greenville, 65 percent of the shelf, so a lot of what you see when you shop is one company's lineup in different metal levels.

Greenville plan counts from the CMS 2026 landscape file (county FIPS 45045, Rating Area 23). Bronze includes expanded bronze, and companies CMS lists under more than one legal issuer are grouped with the legal names underneath.

What it costs in Greenville County before any subsidy

These are the full monthly prices, before any premium tax credit, for the cheapest Greenville 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 Greenville pay less, often a lot less.

Benchmark silver is the second lowest of the 18 silver premiums listed for Greenville. The last column is two adults aged 40 plus two children.

What these numbers mean if you live in Greenville County

Greenville 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 $620, which is $28 above the benchmark silver and $30 above the cheapest silver. In Greenville the extra gold premium pays for a lower deductible rather than coming free.

In Greenville County the benchmark is $193 above the cheapest bronze at age 40, and 28 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 $592 benchmark minus what the government expects you to pay from your income. A 40 year old in Greenville whose expected share is $193 a month or less would pay nothing for the cheapest bronze. At 60 the Greenville gap grows to $410 and at 21 it shrinks to $151, which is why older enrollees are the ones most likely to find a $0 plan.

Charleston County, around Charleston, is the other South Carolina county I track. Compared with Charleston County, the Greenville benchmark is $83 higher at 40 and the cheapest bronze is $8 higher. Molina Healthcare sells in Charleston County and not in Greenville.

Greenville plans by metal level, network and deductible

By network type the 48 Greenville plans break down as 26 HMO, 13 EPO and 9 PPO. Only 9 are PPOs, and every one of them comes from BlueCross BlueShield of South Carolina. If seeing specialists without a referral matters to you, that narrows the Greenville shelf to one company. 3 plans in Greenville have a $0 medical deductible (3 expanded bronze). The 3 bronze ones among them still have out of pocket maximums of $10,500 to $10,600, so a $0 deductible does not mean a small bill.
