Health Insurance for Other States

Health insurance is still administered at the State level and this will continue with the Health Reform changes that took place Jan 1st, 2014.

The carriers and agents are all licensed and regulated at the State level.

Some carriers such as Anthem have products in multiple States and although the parent company is the same, the plans, rates, and business is still regulated at the State level.

You should quote and compare plans based on your State of residence (general rule is 6 months of the year or majority of time in a given State). We have partners in States below which we feel confident in referring clients to when needed.

You can quote across all available States and carriers from one page here.

You can run your California personal health plan quote here to view rates and plans side by side from the major carriers...Free.

Again, there is absolutely no cost to you for our services. Call 800-320-6269 Today!

Frequently Asked Questions
▸ Is health insurance regulated differently in each state?
Yes, health insurance is regulated at the state level, meaning carriers, agents, and plan rules vary by state. California has its own marketplace (Covered California), its own consumer protections, and rules that often differ significantly from other states. A California-licensed agent can help you navigate options specific to this state.
▸ Can I use a California health insurance agent if I live in another state?
No - insurance agents are licensed at the state level, so a California-licensed agent can only advise on California health insurance plans. If you live in another state, you'll need an agent licensed in that state. CalHealth.net specializes exclusively in California coverage statewide, from Southern California to the Bay Area and beyond.
▸ Do major carriers like Anthem offer the same plans in every state?
Not necessarily - while some carriers operate in multiple states, their plan types, networks, and products vary by state and even by market within a state. For example, plan availability and network types in California's individual market may differ from what the same carrier offers elsewhere. Always verify current offerings with a licensed local agent.
▸ How do I compare health insurance plans in California?
You can compare California health insurance carriers side by side to review plan types, networks, and features. Because premiums, subsidies, and plan details change each year, getting a current quote with a licensed California agent ensures you're seeing accurate, up-to-date options.
▸ Is there a cost to use a California health insurance agent?
No - working with a licensed California agent at CalHealth.net is free to you as the consumer. You pay the same premium as going directly to the carrier, and you gain expert guidance on navigating California's market. Goodacre Insurance Services (agency license 0F05234) has been helping Californians since 1994.
