Understanding Health Insurance
Health insurance for individuals and families under 65 works differently than Medicare. Most people access coverage through the ACA Marketplace, through an employer, or through a private plan outside the Marketplace. The right option depends on your income, your family size, your health needs, and whether you qualify for a subsidy.
Enrollment windows are often time-sensitive. We review your options with you so you can make an informed decision.

Frequently Asked Questions About Health Insurance
When can I enroll in health insurance?
The ACA Open Enrollment Period runs from November 1 through January 15 each year. Outside of this window, you can enroll if you experience a qualifying life event such as losing employer coverage, getting married, having a child, or moving to a new state.
How do I know if I qualify for a subsidy?
ACA premium tax credits are based on your household income relative to the federal poverty level. Many people, including those with moderate incomes, qualify for subsidies that significantly reduce their monthly premiums. We can run a quick eligibility check at no cost.
What is the difference between an HMO and a PPO?
An HMO requires you to choose a primary care physician and get referrals to see specialists. It typically has lower premiums but less flexibility. A PPO allows you to see any doctor without a referral but usually has higher premiums. The right choice depends on how you use healthcare.
Can a small business owner offer health insurance to employees?
Yes. Small businesses with fewer than 50 employees are not required to offer health insurance, but many choose to as a benefit. Group health plans are often more cost-effective than individual plans and can be partially or fully employer-funded.
Is there a cost to work with AIS Health Insurance Advisors?
No. Our services are completely free to you. We are compensated by the insurance carriers when you enroll in a plan through us. The plan premium you pay is the same whether you work with an advisor or enroll directly.
