Premiums, deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums and cost sharing are reproduced from the HealthCare.gov Qualified Health Plan landscape file published by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services for plan year 2026. What people actually paid comes from the CMS open-enrollment county public use file for 2026. CMS landscape file as loaded 17 September 2026.
