Chris York helps people in Hancock County compare every 2027 CoverME.gov plan by phone and video. In person only at 272 Main St, Lewiston, by appointment. Help is free to you — insurers pay brokers.
Sample ZIP 04605: 30 plans from Anthem, Community Health Options and Harvard Pilgrim. For a single non-smoker age 40, full monthly price before savings — cheapest Bronze $649.06 (Anthem), benchmark Silver $826.15, cheapest Gold $868.05. That Bronze sample sits between the statewide low of $597.98 and high of $649.06 for age 40. Figures as of November 8, 2026, from CoverME.gov's plan comparison tool.

Chris works with households in Ellsworth, Bar Harbor, Bucksport, Blue Hill, Dedham, Mount Desert, and Orland, and the smaller towns around them, by phone and video.
Community and general hospitals on the current Maine Hospital Association membership list here include Northern Light Maine Coast Hospital, Northern Light Blue Hill Hospital, and Mount Desert Island Hospital. Check the plan's provider directory or ask Chris on the call before you enroll — this page never states which 2027 network covers which hospital.
Hancock County has fishing, lobstering, tourism and many self-employed households whose income spikes in summer. Chris helps estimate 2027 income for CoverME.gov and compare networks before the December 15 deadline for January 1 coverage.
Bar Harbor and Ellsworth summer income should not be copied blindly onto a 2027 application. Chris builds a year-long average so the premium tax credit does not create a spring tax surprise.
MaineCare questions and renewals go through Maine DHHS — use the Maine DHHS office locator. Chris is not paid for MaineCare enrollments and does not do MaineCare renewals; he will still check whether MaineCare or CoverME.gov fits before you buy a plan.
