3 ways to make the most of your health coverage this summer

May 31, 2023

Summer is here! With Marketplace coverage, you’re already in a great place to have a healthy summer. Learn more about how you can stay well this summer:

3 ways to stay healthy & make the most of your summer:

  • Choose a provider. Think of your provider as your health care partner. Finding one you trust is important. Learn how to find a doctor in your plan’s network.
  • Get preventive services. Preventive health check-ups can help detect or even prevent health problems before they start. These services, like shots and cancer screenings, are free when you visit a provider in your plan’s network.
  • Check your choppers. The health of your mouth impacts your overall health. If you have dental coverage, be sure you’re up-to-date on your dental checkups. If not, put them on your summer schedule.

Health coverage for young adults

May 17, 2023

Health insurance can protect you at any age. Know your options, whether you’re still covered through a parent’s health insurance plan or searching for your own plan.

4 health insurance options for young adults

  • Your college or university. If you’re in school, you may be able to enroll in a student health plan.
  • A parent’s plan. If you’re under 26, you may be able to enroll in or stay covered through a parent’s health insurance plan.
  • The Marketplace. If you have certain life changes, like a move, or if your income is within a certain range, you may qualify for a Special Enrollment Period to enroll in a Marketplace health plan for the rest of 2023. Get a quick overview of the Health Insurance Marketplace®.
  • Medicaid. If you’re just starting out, you may qualify for free or low-cost coverage through Medicaid and if you’re eligible, you can enroll immediately.

Learn more about getting covered if you’re under 30.

Preventive services you don’t want to skip

April 19, 2023

Now that you have Marketplace coverage, take advantage of the many free preventive services to help you stay healthy and get the care you need. Getting these services and making healthy lifestyle choices are key steps to good health and well-being. Check with your doctor to find out what services are right for you.

What are preventive services?

  • Marketplace insurance plans cover preventive services for free when they’re delivered by a doctor or other provider in your plan’s network.
  • Preventive services include screenings, check-ups, and patient counseling. These services are used to prevent illnesses, disease, and other health problems, or to detect illness at an early stage when treatment is likely to work best.

Common preventive services

  • Blood pressure screenings
  • Cholesterol screenings (for certain ages and people at high risk)
  • Depression screenings
  • Immunizations
  • Obesity screenings and counseling

Get more information on preventive and wellness services for your whole household, and learn more about preventive care from the CDC.

File your taxes using Form 1095-A, Health Insurance Marketplace® Statement

March 6, 2023

The tax filing deadline is April 18, 2023. If anyone in your household had a Marketplace plan in 2022, use Form 1095-A, Health Insurance Marketplace® Statement to file your federal taxes. You’ll get this form from the Marketplace, not the IRS. Check your Form 1095-A to make sure your information is correct. Keep it with your other important tax information.

Check your online account for Form 1095-A

If you didn’t get your Form 1095-A in the mail, or you can’t find it, check your HealthCare.gov account:

  1. Log into your HealthCare.gov account.
  2. Under “Your Existing Applications,” select your 2022 application.
  3. Select “Tax Forms” from the menu on the left.
  4. Download all 1095-A forms shown on the screen.

If you still can’t find your form, contact the Marketplace Call Center.

How to “reconcile” using Form 1095-A

  • You’ll use the 1095-A form to “reconcile” — check if there’s any difference between the premium tax credit you got and the amount you qualify for on your taxes.
  • Before you start, check the form to make sure the information is right. If you filed your taxes with an incorrect form, you may need to file an amended tax return using the correct information.
  • If anything about your coverage or household is wrong, contact the Marketplace Call Center.
