Keeping your Indianapolis doctors
Marketplace plans in Indiana are increasingly HMOs tied to one hospital system. The Cigna, Aetna and PHCS PPO PPO networks include most major providers in Marion County and work in every state — we check your specific doctors before you enroll.
The Indiana factor
Indiana's Healthy Indiana Plan covers lower-income adults, so the people still shopping the marketplace are mostly above the subsidy range — the group private plans are built for. Indiana has no state individual mandate.
