Bronze health insurance plans in Alaska (2026)
There are 6 Bronze plans on the Alaska Marketplace from 2 insurers, and they are not interchangeable — premiums run from $507 to $569 a month for the same metal tier. Here is what separates them.
Only two insurers sell Bronze plans in Alaska.
All 6 Bronze plans on the Alaska Marketplace come from Moda Health Plan, Inc and Premera Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alaska. With the whole tier split between two carriers, the network question comes first: confirm which of the two covers your providers, then compare plan designs inside that one.
Alaska has one of the smallest Bronze markets in the country.
There are just 6 Bronze plans here from 2 insurers, against an average of about 45 per state. Fewer options makes the comparison quicker, but it also means a single plan's network or drug list can decide the whole decision.
Metal tiers describe roughly what share of covered costs a plan pays, not the quality of its care or network. How the metal tiers actually differ walks through the trade, and how ACA subsidies work explains why the prices below are rarely what anyone pays.
What a Bronze plan costs in Alaska in 2026
Across all 6 Bronze plans in Alaska, monthly premiums run from $507 to $569, averaging $540. Those are age-21, non-tobacco rates before any subsidy — the basis every figure on this page uses, and rarely what anyone actually pays. Premium tax credits cut that bill for most Alaska enrollees, often to a fraction of the sticker price.
Bronze plan deductibles in Alaska
Bronze deductibles in Alaska run from $5,500 to $7,500, with a median of $6,425 across all 6 plans — the amount you pay yourself before the plan starts sharing most costs. The median is the closest thing to a typical plan; the mean sits at $6,525 because the spread is not symmetric. No single figure is a quote — the table below shows the real deductible on each of the cheapest plans, and the insurer breakdown shows how the range splits by carrier.
Bronze out-of-pocket maximums in Alaska
Individual out-of-pocket maximums on Alaska Bronze plans run from $8,000 to $10,000, with a median of $8,850. That is the ceiling on what a plan can make you pay in a year for covered in-network care — after you reach it, the plan pays 100% of covered services. It is the number that matters most in a bad year, and the top of the range here is set by the federal limit that applies to every Marketplace plan, not by the insurer.
