I’m a full-time student. I was pricing healthcare options for next year, and this is what I found. Apparently I don’t make enough money to get subsidies to make health insurance more affordable. I am really wondering about their logic here.
Household income in 2014:
0% of poverty level
Unsubsidized annual health insurance premium in 2014:
$2,391
Amount you pay for the premium:
$2,391 per year (which equals Infinity% of your household income and covers 100% of the overall premium)
You could receive a government tax credit subsidy of up to:
$0 (which covers 0% of the overall premium)
Re: myself
I know that under ObamaCare states were “supposed” to expand Medicaid.. and a lot didn’t. (Good.) But having this giant hole in their system is not going to work. I haven’t seen too many people talking about this particular issue.
