Plan Finder Hubs · New York
Our Story

15 Years Helping People Choose Coverage Confidently

We're an independent agency — not tied to any one carrier — so our advisors recommend what actually fits your life, your family, and your business.

Our Story

Plan Finder Hubs was started for one reason: New York deserves a navigator that knows New York.

In 2018, our founder watched her aunt — a Bronx home-health aide, a citizen, a U.S. Army veteran's widow — spend six weeks bouncing between NY State of Health, a federal call center, and three brokers who didn't understand the Essential Plan. By the time she enrolled, she'd been hospitalized for an asthma flare-up that her medication would have prevented.

That hospital bill — $8,400 in a system that offered her near-zero-premium coverage the entire time — is the reason we exist. New York has the most generous and the most complicated marketplace in the country. We built a navigator portal that finally treats those two facts as inseparable.

Today our certified advisors enroll New Yorkers in every pathway the state offers — Essential Plan, Medicaid, Child Health Plus, Qualified Health Plans, SHOP — in seven languages, across all sixty-two counties.

What Sets Us Apart

Four ways our practice is different.

01
We are exclusively a New York agency
Plan Finder Hubs only enrolls New Yorkers. Every advisor is certified by NY State of Health and licensed by the New York Department of Financial Services. We don't dabble in 50 states — we know one state deeply.
02
We are independent
We are not owned by any carrier. Our advisors earn the same regardless of whether you choose Oscar, EmblemHealth, MetroPlus, Anthem, Aetna, Healthfirst, or Fidelis — so the recommendation is yours, not ours to push.
03
We never charge New Yorkers a dollar
Carriers compensate us when enrollment is completed. Your premium is identical to enrolling directly. The difference is having a certified navigator in your corner who reads the fine print for you.
04
We don't disappear after enrollment
Open Enrollment ends. Your coverage doesn't. Your Plan Finder Hubs advisor stays your point of contact for prior-authorization fights, surprise bills, renewals, and life-event changes — for as long as you're a New Yorker.
Our Mission

“Every New Yorker — citizen, resident, asylum-seeker, restaurant worker, freelancer, entrepreneur — deserves a navigator who knows New York's marketplace as well as they know their own home.”

Our Values

Four words we live by.

Plainspoken
We translate insurance vocabulary — formulary, EOB, MOOP, APTC — into the English your neighbor speaks.
Multilingual
Enrollment happens in Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese, Bengali, Haitian Creole, and Russian. Coverage in your language matters.
Independent
No carrier owns us. No carrier pays us more for steering you somewhere. The recommendation is what fits your life.
Persistent
If a claim is wrongly denied, we appeal. If a network shifts mid-year, we re-enroll you. Coverage is a relationship, not a transaction.

Why Plan Finder Hubs

A New York agency that works for New Yorkers — not the carriers.

We are an independent enrollment portal staffed by certified NY State of Health navigators and licensed New York insurance brokers. Our entire practice is built around the rules and the realities of the New York marketplace.

01

Only New York. Only NY Plans.

We don't dabble in 50 states — we know NY State of Health, the Essential Plan, Child Health Plus, and the borough-by-borough quirks that change which carrier makes sense for you.

02

Free, Independent, Unbiased

Carriers compensate us when you enroll, so our service costs you nothing. We're not paid more to recommend one carrier over another — we're paid the same regardless of who you choose.

03

Multilingual, Always

Our advisor network includes fluent speakers of Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese, Bengali, Haitian Creole, and Russian — because health enrollment in New York should never happen in a language you don't speak fluently.

04

Strongest Consumer Protections

New York has the nation's most rigorous insurance protections — guaranteed issue, community rating, and the Essential Plan. We make sure every right you have under New York law gets used on your behalf.

Letters From Readers

The voices of New Yorkers we've helped.

Unedited notes from clients across the five boroughs and upstate. Names are real; only initials and last names are shortened for privacy.

I work in a Queens restaurant six days a week. Plan Finder Hubs got me onto the Essential Plan in one phone call — in Spanish. My premium is fifteen dollars a month. I've never felt so taken care of.

We have two kids and run a small bakery in Park Slope. They walked us through Child Health Plus for the boys and an EmblemHealth Gold plan for my wife and me. Everything got done in a week.

As a freelance illustrator I'd been uninsured for two years because the marketplace was overwhelming. My advisor sat with me for an hour on Zoom and found an Oscar plan that covered my therapist and my dermatologist. Both.

I'm fifty-eight, between jobs, and terrified of an MRI bill before Medicare. Plan Finder Hubs found me a Healthfirst plan that included my cardiologist at Mount Sinai. Lifesaver.

Between roles, Harlem

My family is mixed-status. Other agencies didn't know how to help. Plan Finder Hubs explained every option — for the citizens and the non-citizens — without judgment. The kids are now on CHPlus.

We run a 14-person design studio in SoHo and our old broker disappeared. Plan Finder Hubs rebuilt our entire group benefits package in three weeks. Our team has never been happier with their coverage.
