The website, https://pa.checkbookhealth.org, allows consumers to compare health plans available in their area based on average monthly and yearly cost, cost of plan in a high-use year, quality, physician availability and formulary availability.  

“Shopping for health insurance and keeping track of what each plan offers can be confusing and, at times, overwhelming,” Commissioner Miller said in a prepared statement. “Using this plan comparison tool helps consumers get a holistic view of the details of plans and how their differences may impact costs and access to care.”
