Instead of throwing up your hands in frustration, here are answers to questions self-employed individuals often have about open enrollment.

How much health insurance costs the self-employed Cost will vary, depending on the plan you choose, who is covered and what subsidies you're eligible for.
If you want more specific help, you can also choose to work with an agent or broker who is trained and certified to sell marketplace health plans in the state they are licensed.
