Health insurance plans in Harrison County, Mississippi (2027)

I pulled every 2027 marketplace plan sold in Harrison County, Mississippi out of the official CMS plan file. There are 43 plans from three carriers, and a 40 year old in Harrison pays $781 a month at full price for the benchmark silver plan. That is $88 less than in Hinds County, the other Mississippi county I track. Across all 79 counties and parishes I track, only 14 have a higher benchmark. That is $124 more than the 2026 benchmark of $657, a change of 19 percent. Cigna and Molina Healthcare sold plans in Harrison 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 Gulfport, Biloxi, Long Beach, D'Iberville or anywhere else in the county.

Who sells marketplace plans in Harrison County

Harrison County and Hinds County, the two Mississippi counties I track, have the same number of carriers, three each. Across all 79 counties and parishes I track, 58 have more carriers than Harrison. Ambetter Health alone accounts for 19 of the 43 plans in Harrison, 44 percent of the shelf, so a lot of what you see when you shop is one company's lineup in different metal levels.

What it costs in Harrison County before any subsidy

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

Monthly premium, full priceAge 21Age 40Age 60Couple, both 40Couple 40 + 2 kids

Benchmark silver (second lowest)$611$781$1,659$1,562$2,338
Lowest gold$731$934$1,983$1,868$2,796

Benchmark silver is the second lowest of the 16 silver premiums listed for Harrison. The last column is two adults aged 40 plus two children.

What these numbers mean if you live in Harrison County

Harrison 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 $934, which is $153 above the benchmark silver and $176 above the cheapest silver. In Harrison the extra gold premium pays for a lower deductible rather than coming free.

In Harrison County the benchmark is $96 above the cheapest bronze at age 40, and three 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 $781 benchmark minus what the government expects you to pay from your income. A 40 year old in Harrison whose expected share is $96 a month or less would pay nothing for the cheapest bronze. At 60 the Harrison gap grows to $204 and at 21 it shrinks to $75, which is why older enrollees are the ones most likely to find a $0 plan.

Hinds County, around Jackson, is the other Mississippi county I track. Compared with Hinds County, the Harrison benchmark is $88 lower at 40 and the cheapest bronze is $33 lower. The same three carriers sell in both, so moving between Harrison and Hinds changes the price you pay but not the companies you can pick from.

There is not a single PPO on the 2027 marketplace in Harrison County. All 43 plans are HMO plans. Outside emergencies, the 43 HMO plans in Harrison generally pay nothing out of network, so the network list matters more than the premium. 7 plans in Harrison have a $0 medical deductible (3 expanded bronze, 2 silver and 2 gold). The 3 bronze ones among them still have out of pocket maximums of $12,000, so a $0 deductible does not mean a small bill.

Every Harrison price on this page is before subsidies, and most enrollees pay less. For a 40 year old in Harrison the premium tax credit is measured against the $781 benchmark. Estimate your own subsidy, or send me your ZIP and I will run the Harrison numbers for you.
