Deep Savings for Different Demographics

The American Rescue Plan has lowered health insurance premiums for the majority of Nevada residents, but it does not take a one-size-fits-all approach to health insurance pricing. Savings are different for Nevadans depending on factors like location of residence, income and employment.

Because of this, many Nevadans could be set to receive even more savings than they know, or have become eligible for a health plan that is even more affordable than they expected.

To give Nevadans a clear idea of what they can expect under the American Rescue Plan insurance available through Nevada Health Link, we’ve developed four unique scenarios that showcase the savings available to different Nevada Health Link customers. 

Remember, you can always access Nevada Health Link’s Health Insurance Calculator to see how much you personally can save through the American Rescue Plan.
