• Health Insurance USA

  I have recently immigrated to the US. I need health insurance until I find a job which provides with one. I visited healthcare.gov and it was bit confusing as some of the plans were showing up a minimum of 500$/month (49 year old). Could someone advise me whether there are cheaper options.

• Retiring in Florida

  Go to healthcare.gov and see if you qualify for insurance. Maximum out of pocket depends on the type of plan you pick and what it covers. If you don't qualify through healthcare.gov, you will need to buy insurance on your own which could be quite expensive. Source: 5 months ago

• wanting to commit suicide due to my chest

  You can still get it done without insurance, it's just really expensive. It will be thousands of dollars cheaper to get insurance for a year or so and have the surgery covered than to try and pay for it out of pocket, so it's worth maybe getting insurance. If you're in the USA, healthcare.gov is currently in its 2024 enrollment period so you can buy insurance right now for next year. Source: 5 months ago

  You have time, but only a few days literally (December 15 cutoff), to sign up for the healthcare exchange.

  If you don't like your health insurance, you have to switch jobs. No job? Gotta pick a plan from what healthcare.gov has available. And if you're out of work for an extended sickness, better hope your co-workers will donate their time off to you once you run out of your own. Source: 5 months ago

• What is up with Boomers never being prepared?

  I used to enroll people in ACA plans on the marketplace over the phone and my favorite was when Boomers would refuse to give me their SSNs to complete the enrollment. I'd tell them that was completely up to them and in order to finish their enrollment, they'd need to log onto healthcare.gov and enter the information. Rage would often ensue. Source: 5 months ago

• Anyone else save a shitload of money from Georgia's healthcare marketplace vs. healthcare.gov?

  Well its the $30M+ boondoggle scam they set up to point you to private insurance companies and brokers instead of healthcare.gov. They had planned to try and force GA to use it but their waiver was somewhat rejected. You can, and should, still use healthcare.gov if you want an ACA complaint plan. Source: 5 months ago

• Can you retroactively claim tax credits on your insurance for the previous year?

  So last year I went through the healthcare.gov application and it told me that I would be eligible for Medicaid, but decided not to because of several reasons having to do with financially separating myself from my abusive parents (I was worried that since they financially supported me the year prior -and for the two months of this year- that something legal would blow up in my face if I tried to get on medicaid...

• Private Health Insurance for Pregnancy? Please Help!

  You could also add her to your insurance if you have Open Enrollment coming up soon. But if it has passed or isn't for a few more months and she's pregnant now- Medicaid or a healthcare.gov plan can work in the interim.
