The plans and the prices for the plans are the same whether you signup via the marketplace (aka ACA) or not. There are a lot of BC/BS plans. If your MAGI is below about 60K then you get a subsidy if you signed up via the marketplace. Others counties near us may have other providers but in Sumter it is BC/BS only.

Actually what you say is exactly what I thought because when I went on the ACA website all I saw were Blue plans. However, it sounds as if the poster I was responding to found out otherwise by going a different route. Does the ACA upcharge for those who come in over the 60,000+ limit versus going to an independent agent? Or maybe there are other Blue plans not offered by the ACA. Or possibly the poster I responded to is in another county. Hopefully he/she can clarify.
