Can you pick a good health plan this open enrollment when it’s all pricey?

My 27-year-old son, who works part-time, just received notice of his health insurance premium for next year.

Under his Affordable Care Act plan through the Maryland marketplace, his monthly premium will increase by 17.1 percent. He’s also facing a 10.3 percent jump to his deductible, to just over $10,000, in 2026.
