How to Navigate ACA Health Insurance
The Affordable Care Act (ACA), also known as Obamacare, is a comprehensive health reform law that was enacted in 2010. The ACA has made health insurance more accessible and affordable for many people, but it can still be confusing to understand and navigate.
One of the most important things to understand about the ACA is that it requires most Americans to have health insurance. If you do not have health insurance, you may have to pay a penalty. The penalty for not having health insurance is $2,750 for each adult and $695 for each child in your household.
There are several ways to get health insurance under the ACA. You can get health insurance through your employer, through a government program like Medicaid or Medicare, or through the Health Insurance Marketplace.
The Health Insurance Marketplace is a website where you can compare and purchase health insurance plans from a variety of insurance companies. You can qualify for a subsidy to help you pay for your health insurance if you have a low or moderate income.
If you are not sure how to get health insurance, you can contact a licensed insurance agent or broker. An insurance agent or broker can help you find a plan that meets your needs and budget.
Here are some additional resources that can help you understand and navigate the ACA:
