Nevada Health Insurance: Free Help Comparing ACA and Private Plans

Licensed in Nevada — helping you online, from Las Vegas to Reno.

I help Nevada individuals, families, and self-employed professionals compare their health insurance options and enroll — all online by phone or video, at no cost to you. I'll show you ACA plans through Nevada Health Link and private plans side by side, so you can choose what fits your health, your doctors, and your budget.

Nevada Runs Its Own Marketplace: Nevada Health Link

Nevadans don't use HealthCare.gov. Nevada Health Link is the state's own marketplace for ACA plans and financial help — and I can help you compare plans and enroll. More than 104,000 Nevadans selected a plan for 2026, and about 82% received premium tax credits.

What's Changing for 2027 in Nevada

  • Open Enrollment runs November 1, 2026, through January 15, 2027. Enroll by mid-December to be safe for coverage starting January 1 — I'll confirm the exact date for your plan.

  • Nine insurers are expected to offer plans on Nevada Health Link for 2027, the same companies as in 2026. Nevada's Battle Born State Plans are also part of the lineup.

  • The approved average increase is about 18.8% before subsidies. Your actual premium depends on your plan and the financial help you qualify for.

  • Enhanced federal premium tax credits were not renewed, so many people are paying more — which makes comparing your options more important than ever.

  • Nevada's reinsurance program helps keep premiums lower, especially for people who don't qualify for subsidies.

ACA or Private: Two Paths for Nevadans

ACA plans accept everyone, with no health questions, and can't turn you down or charge more because of a pre-existing condition. Private plans are offered outside the marketplace and ask health questions, so eligibility depends on your answers — but for healthy people, private plans may cost less, and many are available year-round. I'll compare both for you, and if a private plan isn't the right fit, an ACA plan is always an option.

Need Coverage Outside Open Enrollment?

If you have a qualifying life event — like losing other coverage, moving, getting married, or having a baby — you can enroll in an ACA plan during a Special Enrollment Period. Nevada has expanded Medicaid, and Medicaid and Nevada Check Up (for children) accept applications year-round. And depending on eligibility, private plans are often available any time of year.

How I Help Nevadans — Always Free

I'll learn about your household, your budget, and the doctors you want to keep, then walk you through the ACA and private options available in your ZIP code in plain English. I'll check your doctors and prescriptions, help you apply for any financial help you qualify for, and handle enrollment from start to finish. My help is free — plan prices are the same with or without a broker.
