About 1099 Health Insurance

We started 1099 Health Insurance to help people who don't have a big employer handling health insurance for them.

That includes self-employed professionals, independent contractors, freelancers, business owners, families, early retirees, and people going through a change in coverage.

Our goal is simple: help you understand the options available to you, explain the differences in plain English, and make health insurance easier to navigate.

Why 1099 Health Insurance Was Started

Health insurance can be especially frustrating when you work for yourself. There isn't an HR department choosing the plan, explaining the benefits, or answering questions when something goes wrong.

Founder Luis Carmona saw how difficult it was for self-employed people and small business owners to understand the choices available outside traditional employer-sponsored coverage.

1099 Health Insurance was built around that problem: give people a place where they can ask questions, compare options, and get help understanding what they're actually buying.

Self-employed health insurance is still at the heart of what we do. But today we also help families, W-2 employees buying their own coverage, people leaving employer plans, early retirees, and businesses looking for employee benefits.

What We Believe

You Should Understand Your Options

Health insurance isn't one-size-fits-all. We help you compare available coverage based on your situation rather than assuming the same type of plan works for everyone.

Insurance Should Be Explained Clearly

Deductibles, coinsurance, provider networks, underwriting, prescriptions, and plan limitations should be explained in language you can actually understand.

You Shouldn't Feel Pressured

Our role is to explain your choices and help you compare them. You decide whether a plan is right for you.

Service Should Continue After Enrollment

Questions don't stop when your policy begins. Clients can still reach out with questions about benefits, bills, claims, prescriptions, member portals, and renewals.
