Washington Healthplanfinder™ offers plans from the carriers you know, and savings not available anywhere else. All plans on Washington Healthplanfinder cover essential benefits, including doctors visits, trips to the emergency room, and preventative care.
Apple Health is the name for Medicaid in Washington. Apple Health is free or low-cost health insurance for those who qualify.
Cascade Care plans offer more coverage and ways to save than non-Cascade Care plans. They are only available on Washington Healthplanfinder.
Every health plan on Washington Healthplanfinder includes 10 essential health benefits.
Health plans on Washington Healthplanfinder come in three categories, called metal levels. The difference between the metal levels is what percentage of the cost of care they cover, but they all have the same benefits and quality of care!
After selecting your plan, you will receive your first bill from your insurance company. Your insurance carrier will give you instructions on where to pay your first bill, and you can find the payment methods here.
Once you pay your first bill, you are covered!
You will stay covered as long as you pay your monthly premium each month and renew every year.
Your insurance company will send you an ID card. Not all insurance cards are alike, but many insurance cards hold similar information. Your member number, coverage type, and out-of-pocket costs may be listed on the card.
Bring this card with you when you go to the doctor or pharmacy.
If you need to replace your card, reach out directly to your insurance company. If you have Apple Health, your ID card will be available in your Healthplanfinder account.
After you visit the doctor, your doctor’s office sends your insurance company a claim. A claim is the way your doctor asks for payment from your insurance company. The insurance company uses that claim to pay your doctor for part of the care you received.
At tax time, you may receive tax forms from Washington Healthplanfinder.
