How to choose the right health insurance plan for 2027

Marketplace shoppers face fewer insurer choices and average premium increases of 15% as open enrollment continues for 2027 coverage.

  • Millions of Americans selecting 2027 health insurance face rising costs as Employer-Sponsored Health Plans, serving over 60% of people, become pricier. Twelve insurers are leaving the ACA Marketplace at year-end, limiting options.
  • Remaining insurers have proposed premium increases averaging 15% for 2027. Twenty-nine states and Washington, D.C., have finalized these increases so far, with approved rates ranging from about 3% in Vermont to nearly 28% in Arizona.
  • Medicare Part D enrollees face rising prescription drug costs, with deductibles climbing from $615 to $700 in 2027. Louise Norris, a health insurance analyst, said the annual out-of-pocket limit "is increasing to $2,400 for 2027."
  • Although 87% of ACA Marketplace insurees received subsidies in 2026, Norris advises active comparison shopping. "It will almost certainly change in some way," she said, noting plans differ in doctor and drug coverage.
  • Enrollment for Marketplace coverage starting Jan. 1, 2027, ends Jan. 15. HSA contribution limits increase to $4,500 for individuals and $9,000 for families, offering eligible shoppers potential financial reassurance.
