The short answer: in Utah the median 2027 marketplace Silver premium for a 40-year-old is $916 a month before any credit (+13.7% from 2026), the cheapest Silver filed anywhere in the state is $601 (Select Health, Davis County), 5 insurers sell plans for 2027 (6 in 2026), and no marketplace plan in the state is a PPO (every plan is EPO or HMO). A 1099 worker pays that full price above $63,840 of net income for one person, and a capped share of income below it.
Premiums are set county by county and the credit is set by income, so no table can give a 1099 worker a final number. Enter your ZIP and a licensed agent prices every plan filed where you live against what you actually expect to earn.

BLS state medians for the trades on this site (May 2024, employees), against the 2027 line for one person. Over the line means full price; under it means the benchmark plan is capped at 2.15% to 10.22% of income.
A married 1099 worker is measured on household income against $86,560 (couple) or $132,000 (family of four); a spouse’s W-2 counts. The trade pages run the numbers for each household size.
The federal self-employed health insurance deduction (Form 7206) works the same in every state: premiums for the household come off above the line, up to net profit, for months with no employer plan available. State income tax treatment follows the federal adjusted gross income in most states; a tax professional confirms the state return.
