Cut the list by doctors and prescriptions first, since a plan that leaves out either is not a fit at any premium. More insurers means more provider networks to check against your doctors. Fewer PPO-type plans than usual means network fit matters more here. 86% of the plans (38 of 44) charge no monthly premium, so premium will not separate most of them. The out-of-pocket maximum, $750 to $9,850, shows what a bad year could cost. A $0 premium does not remove copays or coinsurance, and your Part B premium is separate. The list mixes 27 HMO-style and 17 PPO-style plans, so network rules differ from plan to plan; read each plan's provider rules. 34 of the 44 rated plans have 4 or more stars. CMS rates the insurer's contract, so look up the rating of the specific plan you are considering. ## How to compare plans in Broward County - **Doctors and hospitals.** Ask each plan whether your doctors, your hospital and any specialists are in its network today. 27 of 44 plans here are HMO or HMO-POS and 17 are PPO-type, so the rules differ. - **Prescriptions.** 36 of 44 plans include drug coverage.

The cap is what limits a hospital stay or a run of treatments. - **Extras and cost-sharing.** Compare copays for primary care, specialists and the emergency room, and any dental, vision and hearing benefits you would use. - **Star rating.** 34 of the 44 rated plans have 4 or more stars.
