Health Insurance in Southaven, Mississippi
Southaven and the rest of DeSoto County sit right on the Tennessee line, and many families live in Mississippi while working, shopping and seeing doctors in Memphis. Frank Caballero is licensed in Mississippi and helps DeSoto County households from Tampa over the phone or on video, in English or Spanish. His focus is making sure the plan you pick covers the doctors you actually use, on whichever side of the state line they are.

What to watch when choosing a plan here
Because you live in Mississippi, you buy a Mississippi plan, even if your doctors are in Tennessee. Some Mississippi plans include Memphis hospitals and specialists and some do not, and that single detail matters more in DeSoto County than almost anywhere else in the state. Before choosing, list the Memphis doctors and hospital you rely on and check each one in the plan's directory.
Private plans and the Marketplace
Southaven households buy Marketplace plans through HealthCare.gov. For 2027 the subsidy stops at 400% of the federal poverty level, $63,840 for one person and $132,000 for a family of four, and above that line every plan is full price. More on Mississippi's numbers is on the Mississippi 2027 premium increase page.
A private, medically underwritten plan is priced on age, ZIP code and health instead of income. You answer health questions, approval depends on them, benefits vary by plan, and private plans are not ACA Marketplace plans. If approved, one can start the first of any month, so it does not wait for open enrollment.

Southaven questions
Can I use Memphis doctors with a Southaven plan?
Only if they are in the plan's network. Your address decides that you buy in Mississippi, but each insurer decides whether Tennessee providers are included. Frank checks your Memphis doctors one by one before you enroll.
I moved to Olive Branch from Tennessee. Can I enroll now?
A permanent move to a new state usually opens a 60-day special enrollment window on HealthCare.gov, as long as you had qualifying coverage before the move. Outside that window, open enrollment runs until January 15, 2027.
Is DeSoto County coverage priced differently than Jackson?
Yes. Marketplace premiums and plan lists vary by county across Mississippi, so a DeSoto County quote can differ from one in Hinds or Harrison County for the same age and plan level.
