Cover Carolina simplifies the search for ObamaCare for citizens of SC at no cost to shoppers

With the federal government health insurance marketplace deadline of December 15th, the window to enroll in a health plan, or switch plans, is rapidly approaching. But many South Carolina residents don’t realize where they live —and what physicians and hospitals they prefer — plays a big role in choosing the right plan. For example, someone living in Richland County may not benefit from the same plan as someone living in Charleston County. And a favorite family doctor might not be covered in a plan that’s offered up on healthcare.gov.

Cover Carolina, a Columbia based website backed by local health insurance agents, is now making it easier than ever to find the right coverage for South Carolina residents. Bypassing the often confusing healthcare.gov website, CoverCarolina.com lets shoppers choose plans based on where they live in South Carolina as well as their preferred physician/hospital providers. The site is also designed to let shoppers get in and out as quickly as possible—with the average time to select a new plan being under 10 minutes.

“We heard time and again how confusing the health insurance marketplace website was, so we decided to offer a simple—and no cost—solution to helping South Carolinians find the right plan,” said Brian Ingram, owner of Cover Carolina. “Our company charges no fee for our service and we also can offer free advice on current laws and insurance terminology—allowing us to be your expert resource on coverage in the South Carolina market.”
