Can I Get Help Paying For My Health Insurance Under Obamacare?

One of the goals of the Affordable Care Act, also known as "Obamacare," is to make sure all Americans have affordable health insurance. Even so, what's affordable is different for each person, and financial help is available to individuals who qualify.

Financial assistance is based on income and family size. For example, you may be eligible if:

  • You earn less than $45,960 as an individual
  • You earn less than $94,200 as a family of four

You can use the Healthfirst Affordable Care Advisor to determine an estimate of the financial help you could receive.
