Turning a Challenge into a Solution

For independent workers, the freedom of freelancing is a huge reward. But when it comes to health insurance, that freedom can feel like a heavy burden. Without an employer to share the cost, you’re suddenly responsible for a new set of financial decisions. And the traditional market often feels like a puzzle with missing pieces, leaving you to wonder: Is truly affordable, quality coverage even possible?

The good news is, it is. Molli Health was built on the belief that health insurance for the 1099 workforce should be both simple and cost-effective. We understand that your income might fluctuate and that every dollar counts. That’s why we’ve reimagined the health insurance experience to prioritize two things: affordability and transparency.

The Price of Freedom: Unpredictable Health Costs

Navigating the health insurance landscape on your own can lead to a number of financial pitfalls:

  • The Premium Problem: Premiums are often the first number you look at, but they don't tell the whole story. Many plans with low monthly costs come with high deductibles or limited coverage, leaving you exposed to major expenses later.
  • Hidden Fees and Surprise Bills: You pay for a service and then get an unexpected bill weeks later for an “out-of-network” lab or a “non-covered” service. This lack of transparency erodes trust and makes it impossible to budget effectively.
  • Confusing Plan Structures: Terms like "co-insurance," "out-of-pocket max," and "HMO vs. PPO" can be overwhelming, leading you to choose a plan that doesn't actually fit your needs or financial reality.

These frustrations are more than just an annoyance. They can make independent work feel financially unstable.


Transparent, Affordable Care: A New Standard

Molli brings a refreshing level of clarity to the market. Our model is built to ensure you know exactly what you’re getting, and what you’re paying for, from day one.
