CareSource's 2026 Indiana marketplace lineup is broader than many shoppers expect: Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum all appear in the official state marketplace content, with HSA-compatible Bronze and chronic-condition-oriented richer designs in the upper tiers.
CareSource's official Indiana marketplace page emphasizes Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum choices, optional adult vision and fitness, $0 telehealth on non-HSA designs, and HSA-compatible Bronze options. Confirm your county, plan documents, and benefit-at-a-glance page before enrolling.
