Description

Policymage is a free, broker-free way to compare ACA health insurance plans in your state. See premiums with your estimated subsidy applied, so you know roughly what a plan will cost you, not just a sticker price. Plans are ranked within each metal tier, so you compare Bronze with Bronze and Gold with Gold. No forms to fill out before browsing, no phone number required, and no commissions influencing what's shown. Compare freely, and find best suitable plans.

Could you build this?

Partial While calculating ACA subsidies is formulaic, maintaining accurate, nationwide real-time insurance plan rates, benefit summaries, and regional provider networks requires access to specialized healthcare data pipelines.

What it would actually take: The stack needs automated ingest pipelines for CMS QHP (Qualified Health Plan) landscape data files, machine-readable insurer index files, and state-based marketplace APIs (SBMs). A robust calculation engine must model FPL-based Advance Premium Tax Credits (APTC) and Cost-Sharing Reductions (CSR) across evolving federal/state regulations, backed by healthcare actuarial domain knowledge.
