If your income is above 400% FPL, you may now qualify for premium tax credits that lower your monthly premium for a 2024 Marketplace health insurance plan. | If your income is in this range, in all states, you qualify for premium tax credits that lower your monthly premium for a Marketplace health insurance plan. | If your income falls at or below 150% FPL in your state, and you’re not eligible for Medicaid or CHIP, you may qualify to enroll in or change Marketplace coverage through a Special Enrollment Period. | If your income is below 138% FPL and your state has expanded Medicaid coverage, you qualify for Medicaid based only on your income. | If your income falls below 100% FPL, you probably won’t qualify for savings on a Marketplace health insurance plan or for income-based Medicaid. |
“Income” above refers to “modified adjusted gross income” (MAGI). For most people, it is the same or very similar to “Adjusted gross income” (AGI).
CMS has announced a Marketplace Special Enrollment Period (SEP) for qualified individuals and their families who are losing Medicaid coverage due to Medicaid unwinding. This temporary SEP, referred to as the Unwinding SEP, will allow individuals and families in Federally-facilitated Marketplace (FFM) states to enroll in Marketplace coverage.
