This is plain wrong nowadays with ACA.
- hotpotamus 3y agoI just put my info into healthcare.gov with $0 in income. Here's the result: > Based on the income and household information you provided, members of your household don't appear to qualify for a premium tax credit or other savings on health insurance. You can continue to view plans, but they'll be listed at full price.
- sys_64738 3y agoAre you doing it right? Almost all people below the poverty level will qualify for basically free plans.
- hotpotamus 3y agoI'm pretty sure I know my own information, but feel free to give it a spin yourself - basically-healthy, single, 37-year-old male in Bexar County Texas. The plans offered were quite far from free and also had deductibles over $7K. Perhaps if I lived in a Medicaid expansion state, things would be better, but I live in Texas with 5.2 million uninsured residents. I suspect if it was so easy to get, then that number would be quite a bit lower.
- sys_64738 3y agoTexas - that’s your problem.
