Hello, we are HealthSherpa

We make it easy to find the health plan that fits you best. So far we’ve helped 1.5 million people do just that.

Our story

On a foggy San Francisco weekend in 2013, we created and launched a simpler, easier way to shop for and enroll in ACA plans. To our pleasant surprise, the world has taken note of how far we've come:

“SF programmers build alternative to HealthCare.gov”

“Healthsherpa helps thousands get insurance quotes”

“Hard to believe: some consumers find free health insurance.”

This is a sampling from the first week we launched. See all press →

Since then, we’ve improved our product and grown our team. However, our mission has held true as we help people in these 3 ways:

Understand your options

We know that health insurance can be confusing. That's why we make it clear by by humanizing the experience.

Get a recommendation

We leverage experience, data and the things that matter most to you to recommend a plan that will best meet your needs.

Enroll with ease

As the first to market with an easy ACA experience, we continue to push forward to be sure we are the easiest way to shop for and enroll in an ACA plan.

And for those who prefer to get that help from a real person, we introduced a world-class phone support team—our Consumer Advocates.
