Instructions For this assignment, you will research and analyze four insurance plans offered by a federally facilitated health insurance exchange (marketplace). Download the Excel “Health Insurance Exchange Assignment Template” which includes a completed submission example on one sheet and a blank template for you to complete.

Part One: Pick a zip code Pick a non-Florida zip code for a state with a federally-facilitated exchange. The list of states below has federally-facilitated exchanges. AL, AK, AZ,, GA, IN, KS, LA, ME, MS, MO, MT, NE, NJ, NC, ND, OH, OK, PA, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VA, WI, WY

Part Two: Pick Your Four Plans Use the website: to find all available insurance product offerings for your selected zip code. To find products, input your zip code. Then hit “skip” until you see “Go to Full-Price Plans.” (Close the pop-up that says, “Help Comparing Plans.”) Next, pick at least four insurance product offerings, including one from each metal level (bronze, silver, gold, and platinum). If a platinum plan is not available for your zip code, you may substitute another metal. Some states do not have platinum plans.

Part Three: Complete the Template After you select four insurance products from any insurance company, fill out the Excel template titled “Health Insurance Exchange Assignment Template.” When inputting information in the template, make sure you specify the zip code you used (at the top) and the metal type for each plan.

Part Four: Identify Plan Recommendations Analyze each of the products and determine which product you will recommend to a low-income family to purchase. The family is seeking a fairly comprehensive insurance product at a good price and they are eligible for cost-sharing subsidies (reductions) (as described in this chapter’s lecture). Provide your rationale for your recommendation in your assignment submission.
