Highmark Announces Affordable Care Act Products in Southeastern Pennsylvania for 2027

PHILADELPHIA (November 1, 2026) — Highmark announced its Affordable Care Act (ACA) health insurance products in Southeastern Pennsylvania for 2026, offering individuals and families high-quality and convenient coverage options to fit their lives and health goals.

“For Americans who don’t receive insurance through work or another government program, the ACA marketplace protects and connects them to high-quality care,” says Mike Pelino, senior director of market strategy and analytics for Highmark. “We encourage consumers to contact our enrollment experts and find the plan that’s right for them.”

Roughly 75% of Highmark’s ACA Marketplace members in Pennsylvania qualify for tax credits that make their coverage more affordable, and 4 out of 5 can find a plan for $21 or less per month after tax credits in 2027.

“While some national, for-profit insurers enter and exit the ACA marketplace, Highmark has been trusted partner for ACA consumers since the program started more than a decade ago,” says Ellen Galardy, president of Federal Business at Highmark. “ACA plans cover all ten essential health benefits, including doctor visits and maternity care, and provide access to important preventive care at no cost to the member. All bronze and catastrophic Individual ACA plans are eligible to be paired with a Health Savings Account, allowing members to use tax-advantaged funds to pay for their care. And, in 2027, we are offering a new bronze plan with a $0 deductible, including prescription medications. It’s a great option for cost-conscious consumers looking for first-dollar coverage.”

Highmark will offer my Blue Access PPO plans in the five Southeastern Pennsylvania counties for 2027. These plans provide individuals and families with access to Highmark’s broadest network of doctors and hospitals, including Jefferson Health, Penn Medicine, and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
