What Is an Association Health Plan?

An association health plan is a health plan offered through a membership route

That usually means:

1️⃣ 40–60% lower premiums than Marketplace plans

2️⃣ You can qualify through a business or group

3️⃣ Individual, family & self employed options available

4️⃣ You may join an association (based on the program rules)

5️⃣ Then you can apply for plan options through that route

Not everyone qualifies. That’s why we start with a quick eligibility check.

I was in need of finding a local health insurance broker that was licensed in the state of Texas. My search results connected me with Mark Savoca and I’m so happy that it did. He listened to my needs and responded quickly with the information I needed to obtain the health insurance I wanted. If you’re looking for a Texas Licensed Health Insurance broker I would certainly recommend him!!!

Highly recommended broker for private health insurance. Ric Monello at Custom Health Plans took the time to understand my needs and remained very responsive, available and helpful throughout the process.

I highly recommend Mark Savoca. I was overwhelmed and anxious about finding health insurance for my family. I knew I didn't want COBRA, but I wasn't sure what my options were. What impressed me immediately was how quickly Mark responded after I emailed him. From that first contact and throughout the entire process, he was always responsive, patient, and willing to answer my questions. Being able to speak with someone (not AI or a robot) knowledgeable and trustworthy brought me tremendous peace of mind and significantly reduced my stress and anxiety. His professionalism and genuine care made all the difference. If you need help navigating health insurance, I highly recommend Mark!!

I spoke with Ric about my situation and he was very helpful. He didn’t beat around the bush and gave me a honest outlook. That’s rare in my experience but definitely appreciated! If I find myself in this type of situation again, I’ll definitely look to him for guidance on all things health insurance.

Check Eligibility and Get Your Options

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Eligibility depends on the program rules and your situation. We confirm it first.

No. These plans are not related to Marketplace (ACA) insurance at all.

They are separate, non-ACA options with different pricing rules, underwriting, and eligibility. That’s why costs can be much lower.

Yes.

These plans use Nationwide PPO networks, including Cigna and Aetna PPO, which are widely accepted across the U.S.

Before enrollment, we can also confirm your specific doctor and hospital to make sure you’re covered.

Usually less than 10 minutes once you qualify.

After we confirm eligibility, we handle the paperwork and get you enrolled quickly.
