Christus Catastrophic and Bronze Plans Comparison
Christus Catastrophic and Bronze Plans
Catastrophic plans are designed for people under 30 or those who qualify for a hardship exemption and want the lowest monthly premium possible.
These plans offer essential protection in case of major accidents or serious illness, while keeping upfront costs minimal.
Catastrophic plans are a good fit if you:
✔ want the lowest monthly premium available
✔ rarely need medical care
✔ primarily want coverage for worst-case scenarios
✔ don’t mind a very high deductible before the plan starts paying
✔ still want access to free preventive services and a limited number of free primary care visits
While monthly premiums are lower, these plans come with higher deductibles and out-of-pocket costs compared to Bronze and Silver options. They include all ACA-required essential health benefits and use the CHRISTUS Health Plan HMO network.
Bronze plans offer lower monthly premiums with higher out-of-pocket costs when you need care.
They’re designed for individuals who want essential health coverage at the most affordable monthly rate and are comfortable paying more when using services.
Bronze plans are a strong fit if you:
✔ don’t visit doctors often
✔ want protection in case of serious illness or injury
✔ prefer the lowest premium available
✔ are okay with higher deductibles and copays for services
