Georgia Affordable Health Insurance Exchange
Unlike other states,
Georgia provides
consumer information
about health
insurance primarily
by telephone and
publishes relatively
little data online.
A total of 211
companies are
licensed to issue
small group
insurance. This makes it
difficult to comment
on the health plans
available in
Georgia, especially
in direct comparison
to the affordability
of those policies.
Georgia does not
have a high risk
insurance pool. This
Web
page lists some of the
state's most
popular low cost
commercial health
insurance plans and
some related benefit
plans. All of these
policies offer
secure online
enrollment and professional OnlineAdviser
personal enrollment
support. Please note
that while many of
these choices could
be included in more
than one of the
suggested usage categories,
each plan is listed only once
for the sake of
brevity. Your
enrollment adviser
is available to
discuss suitability
of any plan for your
specific situation.
