Oscar offers health plans that conform to the standard benefit design approved for purchase through Covered California. These standard benefit design plans are eligible for the tax credit subsidy through Covered California or may be purchased directly from Oscar with no subsidy. Like many health insurance companies, Oscar also offers non-standard benefit design plans that are only available from Oscar directly. Oscar’s off-exchange plans consist of the Simple and Simple Plus series.
