What the Numbers Say About Craig

Craig, Oklahoma has 23 ACA marketplace plans offered by 2 issuers for plan year 2026. The average Silver-tier premium comes in at $644/mo for a 27-year-old non-tobacco user, with the lowest Silver at $517 and the highest at $965. Bronze plans start at $472/mo, useful for healthy enrollees who want catastrophic protection with the lowest monthly outlay.

The benchmark (second-lowest Silver) premium is $522/mo, the figure used to calculate your Advance Premium Tax Credit (the federal subsidy). Enrollees whose expected income-based contribution falls below this amount receive a subsidy for the difference. Across all plans, the average annual deductible is $5,058 and the average out-of-pocket maximum is $9,017 - numbers that matter more than the sticker premium once you actually use care. Year-over-year, average premiums in Craig shifted by +32.8%, a signal of how local issuer pricing and risk-pool dynamics are trending.

Issuer count is one of the strongest predictors of affordability: with 2 issuers active in Craig, consumers have some competitive choice, though narrower than the most competitive counties. Network types split fairly evenly here between PPO and HMO, so comparing referral rules and out-of-network coverage across those two matters as much as comparing metal tiers.
