Covered California is an online marketplace where Californians can compare and enroll in health insurance plans offered by private insurance companies. It was created as part of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), also known as Obamacare, and is designed to make it easier and more affordable for Californians to get health insurance.
Covered California offers a variety of health insurance plans to choose from, including plans from some of the state’s largest and most well-known insurers. Consumers can compare plans based on factors such as cost, coverage, and provider network. Covered California also provides financial assistance to help low- and middle-income Californians afford health insurance. In some cases, this assistance can cover the entire cost of health insurance premiums.
