On-Exchange Marketplace Health Insurance Coverage
The Affordable Care Act (ACA), often referred to as Obamacare, provides minimum standards for health insurance policies in the USA and expands coverage to individuals who were previously unable to purchase insurance due to pre-existing conditions. You may be qualified for the government subsidy in the forms of premium tax credit and/or cost sharing benefit, if your total household annual income stays between 100% and 400% of the Federal Poverty Level.
