All plans require joining the Working Owners group: a 2-minute health survey each month that pays you $10/month.

These are self-funded association group plans, not ACA marketplace coverage. Eligibility depends on a short health questionnaire. Specialty medications are excluded on all plans. Rates shown exclude membership and admin fees, which are disclosed at enrollment.
