From the Research Triangle to Charlotte's growing business scene, North Carolina is full of entrepreneurs and families buying their own health coverage. I help individuals, the self-employed, 1099 contractors, families, and small businesses across North Carolina — from Charlotte, Raleigh, and Greensboro to Durham and Winston-Salem — find private under-65 plans that fit.
North Carolina uses the federal HealthCare.gov marketplace for ACA plans, which are guaranteed-issue and subsidy-eligible if you qualify. But many self-employed North Carolinians who don't qualify for subsidies need an alternative that won't break the budget. Private under-65 plans often offer PPO-style flexibility and year-round enrollment. I compare both and give you the honest read.
