Health coverage helps pay for medical costs. A health care plan has a set of services that the plan provider agrees to pay for if you need them, like when you see a doctor or go to the pharmacy.
One way to get health coverage is through government programs, like Medicare and AHCCCS. Another way is through private insurance companies. The two main ways to get private health coverage are through your job, which is called employer-sponsored group health coverage, or by buying it on your own, called individual health coverage. You can buy an individual plan for yourself and for your entire family.
In the past, buying individual health coverage could be very difficult, especially for people with disabilities. Many people worried that they wouldn’t qualify for it and, even if they did qualify, they might not be able to afford the monthly payments (called premiums) or other fees, like copayments or deductibles.
However, this has changed. Now, private health coverage companies cannot reject your application because you have a health condition, and if you get your insurance through Healthcare.gov, there should be a private or public health plan you can afford.
This article is about getting health coverage through Healthcare.gov. It will help you understand:
- If an individual plan is right for you
- What services your plan will cover
- How to choose a plan
- How much you will have to pay for health care, and
- How to sign up.
If you need more help in understanding individual health plans after reading this article, we recommend you talk to trained experts. Here are some good resources:
- Healthcare.gov has a lot of great information introducing your options. You can also call Healthcare.gov at 1-800-318-2596 o 1-855-889-4325 (TTY).
- Healthcare.gov has local help and you can use the Live Chat feature if you want to copy-and-paste a record of what was said.
- If you have a disability, talk to un/a consultor/a de incentivos de trabajo to learn if you have additional options.
- There is a single marketplace called Healthcare.gov where you can compare plans.
- If you can’t get affordable health coverage through your job or Healthcare.gov, the government may help pay your premium with tax subsidies, meaning you pay less. Aclaración: No hay límite de ingreso para recibir subsidios para el pago de las primas de los seguros privados individuales. (Antes del 2021, el límite era del 400% de FPG.) Para recibir subsidios, todavía tiene que cumplir con los otros requisitos y la prima que paga depende de su ingreso y su plan.

The only things that can affect what an insurance company charges you are:
- Your age
- Whether you use tobacco
- The plan you choose
- Where you live
- You cannot be turned down because you have pre-existing conditions.
