  • Commercial: The most common plans offered by private companies. Providers contract directly with the private insurance company.
  • ACA Marketplace (Commercial exchange): Plans available for patients to buy on online marketplaces under the Affordable Care Act. Providers contract with the insurance carrier offering the plan, not the marketplace itself.
