if you live in state expanding its medicaid program it sounds like you might qualify. otherwise you'll certainly qualify for financial assistance to buy a plan through the marketplace. the good news is you can no longer be turned down because of your health problems. i suggest you contact your state's marketplace (go to healthcare. gov to find the contact information) and see what's available to you. you can also go to localhelp. healthcare. gov to find personalized assistance in your state either by phone or in person.
