Health Insurance MarketplaceACA / Obamacare

A simple introduction to medical coverage available through the Health Insurance Marketplace.

What is Marketplace coverage?

These are private medical plans that comply with Affordable Care Act requirements. Depending on income and household composition, some people may qualify for financial assistance that reduces their monthly premium.

What it may cover

Plans include essential health benefit categories such as office visits, hospitalization, prescription drugs, and preventive services. Specific costs, networks, and benefits depend on the plan.

When you can enroll

Enrollment generally occurs during the annual enrollment period. Certain life changes, including losing other coverage, moving, marriage, or having a child, may create a special enrollment opportunity.

Financial assistance may change

Premium tax credits depend on information reported in the application. Keep income, household, and other changes updated throughout the year.

  • Deductible, copays, and out-of-pocket maximum.
  • Doctor, hospital, and pharmacy networks.
  • Coverage and cost of the medications you use.
