Buying Affordable Care Act Health Insurance: Subsidy Calculator

Use this calculator provided by the Kasier Family Foundation to  estimate whether you are eligible for a tax subsidy, and if so, how much. "This tool illustrates health insurance premiums and subsidies for people purchasing insurance on their own in new health insurance exchanges (or “Marketplaces”) created by the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Beginning in October 2013, middle-income people who are not eligible for coverage through their employer, Medicaid, or Medicare, can apply for tax credit subsidies available through state-based exchanges." The kff.org website is a wonderful source of information about the ACA and related health insurance and health care topics. Use the calculator at:
