Provo Health Insurance Options

Health insurance Provo residents buy usually falls into one of five categories. Students, parents and founders tend to land in different ones. Here is the Utah County version of each.

HealthCare.gov Plans in Utah County

Utah relies on HealthCare.gov, so Provo residents enroll on the federal exchange. Every plan includes maternity care, pediatric care and coverage for pre-existing conditions. In addition, low incomes often unlock large tax credits.

  • Open Enrollment currently starts on November 1
  • Enrolling by December 15 means coverage from January 1
  • Having a baby opens a 60-day window to add your child

Learn more on our ACA health plans page and in our Open Enrollment basics guide.

Short-Term Health Insurance in Utah

UnitedHealthcare short-term plans can cover a summer break or a job switch. In Utah, short-term terms run 1 month to just under 12 months; ask an agent for options. Still, these plans are not ACA coverage, so they may exclude pre-existing conditions and maternity care.

Read our short-term coverage overview, or call 888-730-6001 before you choose one.

Dental, Vision, Life and Supplemental Coverage

Young families often add dental and vision first. After that, life insurance protects a new mortgage. Also, supplemental plans can soften a high deductible.

Utah Medicaid, Baby Your Baby and CHIP

Utah expanded Medicaid to adults up to 138 percent of poverty. Meanwhile, Baby Your Baby offers temporary Medicaid for prenatal care while a full application is reviewed. Utah CHIP then covers uninsured children, including dental care.

Income Lines for Larger Households

Household sizeAdult Medicaid line (138% FPL)Credit help ends past (400% FPL)
3 peopleAbout $37,700 a year$109,280 a year
5 peopleAbout $53,380 a year$154,720 a year

Bigger households get higher limits, so more families qualify than they think. Therefore, call 888-730-6001 to price health insurance Provo plans for your family size.

Provo Hospitals, Networks and Doctors

Health insurance Provo patients pick should include the valley's main hospital and their own clinic. In Utah County, a few systems dominate. However, plan networks still differ.

So collect your doctors' names first. An agent at 888-730-6001 can verify each one.

Utah Valley Hospital

Intermountain's Utah Valley Hospital is the area's largest hospital. In fact, it ranks as Provo's second-largest employer. Because it offers labor and delivery, expecting parents should check it first. A missing hospital can mean big bills at the worst moment.

Revere Health Clinics

Revere Health, a large physician group, is also a top-ten local employer. Since many families see Revere doctors, check them by name.

Orem and Nearby Options

Timpanogos Regional Hospital in Orem belongs to a different system. Also, Orem Community Hospital offers a smaller Intermountain option. For complex care, some patients still travel north to Salt Lake City.

Check Every Provider

Begin by opening our carrier directory links for each insurer. Then read how copays and coinsurance add up. After that, call 888-730-6001 so health insurance Provo plans match your doctors.

Health Insurance Provo Workers Need

Education, healthcare and technology drive the Provo economy. Yet a big slice of the city must arrange health insurance Provo employers never supplied. Students, startup employees and returned missionaries often shop on their own.

Every situation has a sensible plan. Find yours with an agent at 888-730-6001.

BYU Students and Young Couples

BYU enrolls more than 30,000 students. Married students with children often need more than a basic student plan, so compare family options. In many cases, a low student income qualifies the family for strong tax credits.

Silicon Slopes Startup Workers

Qualtrics, Vivint and Nu Skin anchor a busy tech and direct-sales scene. Startup staff without group plans can read our self-employed coverage guide.

Returned Missionaries

Provo hosts the church's largest Missionary Training Center. When missionaries return, many start school or work with no plan in place. Our short-term vs. ACA comparison shows the trade-offs.

Clinic and Hospital Staff

Utah Valley Hospital and Revere Health employ thousands. Per diem staff can read our guide to choosing coverage.

Health Insurance Provo FAQs

Utah Valley callers ask these health insurance Provo questions most. For wider Utah rules, browse the Utah coverage questions library. You can also call 888-730-6001.

We are BYU students expecting a baby. Where do we start?

First, check whether you qualify for Baby Your Baby or Medicaid. If not, a Marketplace plan with tax credits covers maternity care.

I just returned from a mission. How do I get coverage?

If you are under 26, a parent's plan may cover you. Otherwise, a short-term plan can bridge you to Open Enrollment.

My Lehi startup offers no health plan. Can I get tax credits?

Yes, if your income qualifies. Without an affordable job-based offer, Marketplace credits are available.

Is Utah Valley Hospital in every plan?

No. Networks differ, so confirm the hospital by name.

Are Revere Health doctors in my plan?

Coverage of Revere clinicians varies by plan and network tier. Search each Revere doctor before you enroll.

Do bigger families get higher income limits?

Yes. Both Medicaid and tax credit limits rise with each household member. For instance, a family of five can earn up to $154,720 and still get credits.

Can Vivna help me if I live in Provo?

Yes. Our phone and online process works well for busy Utah County schedules. So you can finish between classes.
