Missouri-Based Health Insurance Companies

While many insurance companies offer health insurance in Missouri, far fewer have based their operations in the state. Buying your health insurance from a Missouri-based company means you are supporting a local business. Companies based in Missouri also have a good feel for the needs of Missourians and can offer coverage that better meets residents' needs.

  1. Community Health Plan Insurance Company

    • Community Health Plan was introduced in 1995 by a group of northwest Missouri citizens. They recognized that a strong health care system improved a community's economic as well as physical health. Local health care providers, insurance providers and employers teamed up to create an affordable health plan that met the needs of northern Missourians. Plans can be tailored to small businesses with as few as two employees. The board of directors and doctors are all local citizens.
