Harbor Health Accelerates Growth, Expanding Both Large Group and Individual and Family Insurance Plans Across Texas

 Integrated coverage and care model now reaches more than 14 million Texans

AUSTIN, Texas, July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Harbor Health, a Texas-based primary and specialty care clinic group and insurance company, today announced the expansion of its integrated health insurance plans along with its clinical delivery network. Continuing to grow across Texas, Harbor Health Insurance Company now offers its Large Employer Insurance solutions across 25 Texas counties, spanning four major metropolitan areas: Austin, Dallas-Fort Worth, San Antonio, and El Paso. Harbor's Individual and Family Plans on the Health Insurance Marketplace will be available November 1, 2026 and effective January 1, 2027 across 13 Texas counties in five areas: Austin, Dallas-Fort Worth, San Antonio, Houston, and El Paso.

Harbor Health's geographic expansion allows large employers to immediately enroll employees in its commercial plans. Fully insured Individual and Family plans will be available during the Health Insurance Marketplace Open Enrollment period. By expanding into these markets, Harbor Health's Large Employer Insurance plans will reach more than 14 million Texans, or roughly 47% of the population of Texas. Harbor's Individual and Family plans will be options for more than 16 million Texans, covering more than 51% of the state's population.

The following counties make up Harbor Health Insurance Company's expanded Texas coverage area, available for Large Employer coverage today, with Individual and Family Plans available beginning November 1, 2026 for a January 1, 2027 effective date.

Harbor Health Medical Group Completes Integration of Village Medical Clinics

The strategic scaling of Harbor's insurance product is aligned with the integration of its clinical network. Following its September 2025 acquisition of 32 Village Medical clinics, Harbor Health Medical Group has now completed its operational transition, officially re-branding these facilities under the Harbor Health name. The clinical team has tripled in size across the expanded Texas counties. At the core of Harbor Health's model is an integrated structure that eliminates the friction between clinical care and financial payment.

"When care delivery and coverage are aligned under one single model, the fundamental incentives of healthcare change completely," said Dr. Clay Johnston, Co-Founder and Chief Innovation Officer at Harbor Health. "Costs stabilize naturally, because keeping people healthy is no longer financially misaligned. With a Harbor insurance plan, people and their care teams are finally empowered to own their health decisions, with everyone aligned to keep members healthy and reduce waste.
