American healthcare is organized around W-2 employment.

Employers handle benefits for W-2 workers. If you work for yourself, you handle all of this:

  • Health insurance and the Marketplace
  • Prescription drugs
  • Dental and vision insurance
  • Mental health care
  • Navigation and healthcare steerage

A healthcare membership for people who work independently.

COMMONPLACE builds a consistent healthcare experience that moves with you through your career, however you work and wherever your income comes from.

Everyday care

A curated network of primary care, mental health, women’s health, dental, vision and other providers, chosen so you don’t have to start from a search box.

Navigation

One place to understand your coverage, find care, manage your healthcare needs and get support when something comes up.

Community

A collective membership for people building careers outside traditional employment. You don’t have to work it out alone.

Most people piece it together.

Without an employer plan, independent workers stitch coverage together from whatever is available to them.

  • ACA individual Marketplace
  • Medicaid or the New York Essential Plan
  • Spouse or family coverage
  • Secondary employment
  • Union benefits
  • Direct-pay healthcare

What Marketplace coverage costs

A freelancer earning $80K in NYC, on the least expensive Marketplace plan.

$3,600 a year in premiums, at about $300 a month
+
$12,000 deductible, paid out of pocket before the plan covers most care
=
$15,600 a year, at most, before the plan pays most of your care
  • Premiums, 4.5% of income
  • Deductible, 15%
  • Everything else, 80.5%

Nearly 20% of an $80K income goes to coverage before it starts to help.

COMMONPLACE is built to close that gap.
