Health insurance for self-employed and 1099 workers in Texas
Whether you work out of Houston, San Antonio, and Dallas, or anywhere else in Texas, self-employed and 1099 workers rarely get health benefits through an employer — so coverage is on you. A private PPO plan is built for exactly that: it enrolls year-round, uses a broad nationwide network that works throughout Texas and across state lines, and the coverage is yours no matter who you work with.
Texas has 5 of its largest metros in Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, Austin, and Fort Worth — and a private PPO gives you in-network access in each, plus everywhere your work takes you.
