What the CMS county data shows
The 2026 CMS Open Enrollment county-level file, as verified by CoveragePath, reports 4,536,626 Marketplace consumers across 65 of Florida's 67 counties. Figures for the other 2 counties are not in the data CoveragePath holds and are not estimated here.
Of those 4,536,626 consumers, 724,871 (16.0%) are reported as new and 3,811,755 (84.0%) as returning; in every county included, new plus returning equals the county total.
1,025,823 consumers (26.9% of the returning group) are reported as automatically re-enrolled; in every county included, that count is no larger than the county's returning count.

How to read these figures
Each row comes from one county's published CMS figures, and the statewide numbers above add up the counties that have figures. The counts describe people in the CMS file. They do not describe eligibility, premiums, savings or which insurers sell plans in a county.
Using this when you review your own plan
Your own situation can differ from any county figure. Before the next enrollment period, open your Marketplace account, read your renewal notice, and compare your current plan with the alternatives for your household.
