Oscar Will Cover Individuals and Families in Six New States and a Total of 12 New Markets, Pending Regulatory Approval
Oscar, the first health insurance company built to make health care easy, announced that it will expand to cover individuals and families in six new states and a total of 12 new markets in 2020, pending regulatory approval. This is the third consecutive year Oscar has significantly expanded its footprint, and this expansion brings Oscar’s total geographic footprint to 15 states and 26 markets.
For its new individual markets, Oscar will expand in Florida to offer plans in Miami, Tampa, Ocala and Daytona. Oscar will also offer plans for the first time in Philadelphia, PA; Denver, CO; Richmond, VA; Atlanta, GA; and the Kansas City metropolitan area across Missouri and Kansas. In Texas, Oscar will enter Houston and expand the plan options it currently offers in Dallas-Fort Worth. Oscar will also expand to serve several counties in Western Michigan.
“Oscar’s expansion proves that our commitment to making health care easy — by developing seamless technology and providing personalized support — is working. I have never been prouder of the work Oscar is doing to positively impact our members’ lives,” said Oscar CEO and Co-founder Mario Schlosser. “We look forward to serving our new and current members in 2020.”
This decision to expand its individual market coverage comes at the same time Oscar is launching new Medicare Advantage plans in New York and Houston. Oscar announced this decision in July 2019.
