Cheapest premium
These are benchmark premiums, not your price. Every dollar figure here is the individual rate at age 21 for a non-tobacco user, before any premium tax credit — the standard way plans are compared like for like. What you actually pay depends on your age, county, household and income. Estimate your real cost.

South Dakota Silver premiums rank 18th cheapest of 35.

Averaged across all 22 plans, Silver coverage in South Dakota costs $528 a month before subsidies — 18th lowest of the 35 states with federal-marketplace data. Premiums vary far more by county and age than this single number suggests.

Catastrophic and other coverage

Some states also offer Catastrophic plans, which carry very low premiums and very high deductibles and are limited to people under 30 or those with a hardship exemption. They are a small share of the market and are not broken out into their own page here — you can find any available in South Dakota on the full South Dakota plan list. Platinum plans are rare on the federal Marketplace and are absent from most states.
