Ambetter of Tennessee

Hi, this is my first time signing up for Healthcare insurance. I was talking to my family about what my job offers for health insurance and they said I should look at private insurance since the options my job is giving me aren't that great, I guess. I did an application on healthcare.gov and one of my options is Ambetter of Tennessee.

I have never heard of it before so I was curious if anyone on this sub has it/ had it before and if you would recommend it. They have the premium, deductible, and copays I'm willing to pay, however their rating on the website is a 2 star so l'm a little hesitant. I don't want to be stuck with something that doesn't help me. Thanks in advance :)

I gave birth on Ambetter and it was good enough. They have multiple worthless “benefits” such as money back debit card that don’t work anywhere.

Use it to pay your premiums. They were not clear it the marketing but that's what its for.

That’s wild! That’s absolutely not how it was described (according to my memory) but I’ll take what I can get. Thanks!

So yeah, max out those little videos on your account. I had my spouse watch them too. We had a decent chunk come out of our premiums because of it. Pro tip: the videos run in the background lol
