Why your county matters for coverage
In Nebraska, the health plans you can choose depend on where you live. Medicare Advantage and Part D plans are offered by service area, usually county by county, and marketplace premiums and carriers are set by area as well. Living in Sarpy County means the options on this page apply to you, and plans in a neighboring county may differ.
- Medicare: Nebraska SHIP (State Health Insurance Assistance Program) gives free, unbiased counseling at (800) 234-7119. Ask which plans serve Sarpy County specifically.
- Marketplace plans: shop through HealthCare.gov (federal Marketplace); enter your Sarpy County ZIP code to see what is offered.
- Medicaid: apply through Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS).
Nebraska note: Nebraska's SHIP and Senior Medicare Patrol programs operate together as a single division inside the Department of Insurance, so a caller with both a plan-choice question and a suspected Medicare scam can be handled by the same office in one call.
