Individual & family plans

You matter to us

You and your family's well-being is what’s most important to us at WellFirst Health — Provided by SSM Health Plan. Let's face it, health coverage can be confusing. So we want to make that part easy for you.

Marketplace plans

View and compare

The Marketplace (also known as the Exchange or healthcare.gov) is where individuals can compare and purchase health plans for themselves and their family. Marketplace plans are great for individuals and families who are eligible for discounts or financial subsidies. These discounts can include:

Tax credits - Tax credits lower the monthly premium you pay for health coverage and are more available than ever due to the 2021 American Rescue Plan act. Depending on your household income level, these credits can pay for a considerable amount of your premium. You can use your tax credit on most Marketplace plans.
