CoverTN relies on voluntary partnerships between the state, individuals and employers where each commit to pay one-third of the monthly premium of the low-cost product.
CoverTN is designed to create health insurance options that are affordable, portable and meet the needs of small business owners and the self-employed who otherwise couldn't afford coverage at all. CoverTN is a limited-benefit health insurance plan that provides low-cost coverage for basic medical services in order to encourage regular doctor visits and preventive screenings.
