Healthcare.gov alternative search site →
The people of OpsCost , a site built to compare hospital prices, built the site HealthSherpa, which is like an easy-to-use alternative to the Healthcare.gov site. Simply plug in your zip code and see a filterable list of plans listed along with a description of how to buy that plan.
While this may eventually become out-of-date with the official listings, it is so incredibly easy to use. This is a perfect example of how to quickly bootstrap an app that gets right down to the functionality that users need. They should get some kind of commission for plans they refer, like many other services offer for leads from the web.
