Methodology

Figures cover on-exchange individual medical plans for the 2027 plan year in the 29 states PlanVoyager has Marketplace data for, deduplicated to one entry per base plan. The “from” price is the lowest premium available to a 40-year-old across each plan’s rating areas, before any premium tax credit. “Silver from” is the same figure restricted to Silver plans, and “Median Silver” is the median of per-plan lowest Silver premiums in the state. Source: CMS Marketplace plan and rate data. Most enrollees pay far less after subsidies.
