Affordable Care Act Enrollment Tips
|
|
People who think they may qualify for private health insurance coverage through the health insurance Marketplace in their state have until March 31, 2014 to enroll and select a plan for coverage starting May 1, 2014. Individuals living in the continental United States (income levels differ for Alaska and Hawaii) who make between $11,490 and $45,960 may qualify for lower premiums on a Marketplace insurance plan.
Some individuals, particularly those experiencing homelessness or those living with HIV/AIDS, may be eligible for the Medicaid program in their state. People can apply for Medicaid at any point; there is no open enrollment period. People can apply by contacting their state Medicaid program directly or by filling out an application through the Marketplace in their state.
