NEW analysis: Rather than continuing to go without insurance, *4.2 million* uninsured people could get an #ACA bronze plan for FREE

We estimate 27% of uninsured potential Marketplace shoppers are eligible for a bronze plan with $0 premiums in 2019. kff.org/health-reform/…
In #Delaware, #Iowa, #Nebraska, and #Utah, almost 1 in 2 currently uninsured people who could be buying Marketplace coverage will be able to get a $0 bronze plan in 2019.

But, will they even know this is an option?
Bronze plans have high deductibles & many ppl are better off w/ Silver

But the math is simple: $0 bronze >> uninsured

Bronze plans have $0 preventive services, often a few Dr visits pre-deductible, & make it more likely to get non-emergency care even if you can't pay deductible
If you are wondering whether you might qualify for a free or low cost health plan, go to healthcare.gov. The deadline to sign up is just a few days away: December 15.
Even if you’ve applied for #ACA Marketplace coverage in the past and been told you weren’t eligible for help or would have to pay a high premium, it’s still worth checking again. Each year, you have to go back on healthcare.gov and shop to know your options.
