Health Insurance Tax Estimator

Estimate state taxes on your health insurance claims

The state of Michigan has changed the way it raises money to support Medicaid. On Jan. 1, 2012, the state replaced the 6 percent tax on Medicaid services with a 1 percent tax on certain health insurance claims. All health insurance carriers operating in Michigan have to pay the new tax. 

We created the Michigan Health Insurance Claims Tax Estimator to help you understand how this tax impacts your premium.

What does it do?

This tool calculates your tax amount and adds it to your premium to display your total monthly, quarterly and annual costs. 

How do I use it? 

All you have to do is enter:

• Your insurance carrier (Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan or Blue Care Network)
• The type of plan you have
• Your monthly premium
