Why it matters
Going without coverage exposes you to the full cost of an unexpected illness or injury, which can run into the tens of thousands of dollars even for a short hospital stay. Florida did not expand Medicaid, so many working adults fall into a coverage gap where marketplace subsidies become the main path to affordable insurance, making plan selection during open enrollment especially important.
Common coverage options
HMO plan
Lower premiums with a defined network and required referrals to specialists.
PPO plan
Higher premiums but more flexibility to see specialists and out-of-network providers.
EPO plan
Mid-range option with no referral requirement but no out-of-network coverage except emergencies.
