What Is Essential Health Benefits?
The one-minute explanation of essential health benefits — no jargon.
Essential Health Benefits: The ten categories every Marketplace plan must cover: emergency care, hospitalization, prescriptions, maternity, mental health, preventive care, and more.
In Plain English
No Marketplace plan can skip these. Because every plan covers the same ten categories, you compare plans on cost and network — not on what's included.
