Covered California is a state health insurance marketplace that offers affordable and high-quality insurance plans from top insurance companies. The private company is based in California. It is the only place where individuals who qualify can get financial assistance on a sliding scale to reduce premium costs. Consumers can compare health insurance plans and choose the plan that works best for their health needs and budget. Depending on their income, some consumers may qualify for the low-cost or no-cost Medi-Cal program. Covered California is overseen by a five-member board appointed by the governor and the legislature. The American company was founded by Anthony V. Pfannkuche. Jessica Altman has been the CEO of the company since 2022.
