Tennessee Insurance Coverage Help
TennCare, Tennessee's Medicaid program, and CoverKids, Tennessee's children's health insurance program, are both administered by the state, while Tennessee residents shop for ACA coverage through the federal HealthCare.gov Marketplace. GetFastRates.com is free to use for Tennessee callers working through Medicare, ACA, life, or supplemental coverage questions.
Coverage questions in Tennessee.
Medicare, health, life, and supplemental insurance can depend on state, carrier, enrollment timing, household details, and personal needs.
TennCare (Medicaid) and CoverKids (CHIP) can both be applied for at TennCareConnect.tn.gov or by calling 1-800-342-3145 -- that's the right place to start if your Tennessee Medicaid eligibility changed.
Tennessee never built its own ACA exchange, so Tennessee marketplace shopping and subsidy questions go entirely through the federal HealthCare.gov Marketplace.
Free Medicare counseling is available in Tennessee through the Tennessee State Health Insurance Assistance Program (TN SHIP) at 1-877-801-0044, separate from GetFastRates' own free phone help.

Tennessee's children's health coverage program has its own distinct name, CoverKids, rather than being folded entirely into the TennCare brand -- worth knowing since a household can qualify for CoverKids even in situations where adult members don't qualify for TennCare.
Tennessee coverage questions people ask.
Who runs Medicaid in Tennessee?
Tennessee Medicaid is administered by TennCare. If your Tennessee 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 Tennessee have its own ACA marketplace?
No. Tennessee uses the federal HealthCare.gov Marketplace rather than a state-run exchange, so Tennessee marketplace shopping and subsidy questions go through HealthCare.gov.
Is there free Medicare counseling in Tennessee?
Yes. TN SHIP (State Health Insurance Assistance Program) offers free, unbiased Medicare counseling in Tennessee at 1-877-801-0044. GetFastRates.com's phone help is also free and separate from that program.
