Butler County, Ohio: health insurance
What Butler County residents should know about Medicare, marketplace plans and Medicaid.
Medicaid is a government program that gives free or low-cost health coverage to people with limited income, such as some adults, children, pregnant women, seniors and people with disabilities. Each state runs its own Medicaid program and decides who qualifies. We are an independent insurance agency, and we cannot enroll you in Medicaid or check your Medicaid.

If your income is too high for Medicaid, or you want to compare health plans, call us. We can help with that.

See which companies have plans leaving across Ohio: Ohio Medicare plans ending for 2027 →
A plan can be listed because it was renumbered or replaced, not only because a company is leaving the county. When the same company keeps other plans there, members are usually moved to a replacement plan. Your plan should send you a notice, and Medicare’s Annual Enrollment Period (October 15 to December 7) is when you can compare and switch. “People enrolled” is the number enrolled in that plan today (CMS hides counts of 10 or fewer). Source: CMS Medicare Advantage and Part D landscape files for 2026 and 2027, and CMS enrollment data from September 2026.

Why your county matters for coverage
In Ohio, the health plans you can choose depend on where you live. Medicare Advantage and Part D plans are offered by service area, usually county by county, and marketplace premiums and carriers are set by area as well. Living in Butler County means the options on this page apply to you, and plans in a neighboring county may differ.
- Medicare: OSHIIP (Ohio Senior Health Insurance Information Program) gives free, unbiased counseling at 1-800-686-1578. Ask which plans serve Butler County specifically.
- Marketplace plans: shop through HealthCare.gov (federal Marketplace); enter your Butler County ZIP code to see what is offered.
- Medicaid: apply through Ohio Department of Medicaid.
Ohio note: Ohio's Medicare counseling program, OSHIIP, is run directly by the state insurance regulator rather than a separate aging agency, so the Ohio Department of Insurance is a useful single point of contact for both Medicare questions and general insurance complaints.
