Common questions

Your first plan
on your own.

In 2026, about 1 in 4 Volusia County Marketplace shoppers were ages 18 to 34. Here are three common questions for people who live in DeLand.

“I'm turning 26. When do I need my own plan?”

Check the date your parent's plan ends for you. Losing that coverage can let you sign up outside open enrollment. You can often apply up to 60 days before it ends, and up to 60 days after. We help you avoid a gap.

“Should I pick the plan with the lowest monthly price?”

Not always. A low monthly price often comes with a high deductible. If you rarely see a doctor, that may be fine. If you take a medicine or see a doctor often, a Silver plan may cost less over the year. We add it up both ways.

“Is my hospital in the plan?”

In 2026, 96 of Volusia County's 154 Marketplace plans were HMOs. An HMO usually pays only for doctors and hospitals in its network, except in an emergency.

  • A clear answer on whether you can sign up now, and your deadline
  • Bronze and Silver plans side by side, with the full-year cost added up
  • A yes or no for each of your doctors and your hospital, plan by plan

Straight answers

DeLand health insurance questions.

Which companies offered Marketplace plans in Volusia County for 2026?

Volusia County plans for 2026 came from 7 companies: Ambetter Health, Florida Blue, Florida Health Care Plans, Health First, Oscar, UnitedHealthcare, and Wellpoint. The 2027 list should be posted around November 1, 2026, when open enrollment starts.

When can I sign up if I'm turning 26?

Losing coverage on a parent's plan can qualify you for a Special Enrollment Period. You can often apply up to 60 days before that coverage ends, and up to 60 days after. Plan ahead so you don't have a gap.

What is the difference between Bronze and Silver plans?

Bronze plans usually have a lower monthly price and a higher deductible. Silver plans cost more each month. But they often pay more when you get care. If your income is low enough, a Silver plan may also come with a lower deductible and copays. Our bronze vs. silver guide explains more.

Is AdventHealth DeLand in every plan?

Don't assume it is. Each plan picks its own hospitals and doctors, and most Volusia County plans are HMOs. Look up the hospital in each plan's directory before you enroll.

Can I get a PPO in Volusia County?

Some. Of Volusia County's 154 Marketplace plans for 2026, 14 were PPOs. Another 19 were EPOs and 25 were POS plans. Each type has its own rules for doctors outside the network. If your tax credit is small or zero, a private PPO plan may be another option to look at. Some private plans ask health questions, and approval is not guaranteed. Some may not cover care for health problems you had before you enrolled.

When is open enrollment for 2027 coverage?

As of October 10, 2026, under current law, you can sign up from November 1, 2026, through January 15, 2027. A court case about these dates is still on appeal, so check HealthCare.gov. To start coverage January 1, pick a plan by December 15. Outside those dates, you usually need a life event, such as a move or losing other coverage. Our Florida open enrollment guide has the details.

Open enrollment starts November 1
