No. New Jersey Private Health is a DBA of Lyons Life LLC; insurance is offered by Martin Elefant, an independent licensed agent. We help you compare Get Covered New Jersey plans and private plans; we are not affiliated with any government agency.
A medically underwritten major-medical plan sold outside the marketplace by a carrier that leases a national PPO network (MagnaCare and Cigna PPO). It's priced on age and health rather than income, enrolls any month, and is month to month.
Anyone who qualifies for a Get Covered New Jersey subsidy, and anyone with a serious pre-existing condition. Private plans can decline or exclude conditions; the marketplace can't. We'll tell you if that's you.
For a healthy individual, roughly $290–$600 a month depending on age and deductible; families roughly $800–$1,300. See live pricing on our quoting tool.
Private plans: any month — apply by the 20th for the 1st. Marketplace: November 1 – January 15, or within 60 days of a qualifying life event.
Both markets, one call, no obligation. Or call (561) 363-7776.
