Arizona Insurance Coverage Help
Arizona's Medicaid program, AHCCCS, has run almost entirely through managed care since the early 1980s -- one of the first states to build Medicaid this way -- and Arizona uses the federal HealthCare.gov Marketplace rather than its own exchange. GetFastRates.com is free to use for Arizona callers working through Medicare, ACA, life, or supplemental coverage questions.
Coverage questions in Arizona.
Medicare, health, life, and supplemental insurance can depend on state, carrier, enrollment timing, household details, and personal needs.
Arizona Medicaid, called AHCCCS (Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System), is the right place to start if your Arizona Medicaid eligibility changed -- apply or check status at healthearizonaplus.gov.
Arizona does not run its own ACA exchange, so Arizona marketplace shopping and subsidy questions go through the federal HealthCare.gov Marketplace.
Free Medicare counseling is available in Arizona through the State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) at 1-800-432-4040, coordinated through the Arizona Department of Economic Security's regional offices and separate from GetFastRates' own free phone help.

Arizona coverage questions people ask.
Who runs Medicaid in Arizona?
Arizona Medicaid is administered by AHCCCS (Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System). If your Arizona Medicaid eligibility changed, that agency -- not GetFastRates.com -- makes the eligibility decision, but a free call can help you understand what your options look like next.
Does Arizona have its own ACA marketplace?
No. Arizona uses the federal HealthCare.gov Marketplace rather than a state-run exchange, so Arizona marketplace shopping and subsidy questions go through HealthCare.gov.
Is there free Medicare counseling in Arizona?
Yes. Arizona State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) offers free, unbiased Medicare counseling in Arizona at 1-800-432-4040. GetFastRates.com's phone help is also free and separate from that program.
