Every figure on this page compares the lowest-cost silver plan for a 50-year-old in Dillon County (FIPS 45033) across both markets for the same plan year (2026): the individual market side comes from the CMS Marketplace Public Use Files, the small-group side from Ideon's county-level rate data. We never mix plan years, tiers, or geographies. Figures are benchmark estimates — not an offer of insurance, a quote, or a guarantee of savings.
