if you are offered affordable coverage by an employer you can buy insurance through the new marketplaces but you won't be eligible for tax credits. affordable employer health insurance costs no more than 9. 5% of your income and covers at least 60% of covered medical costs. in most instances you will get a better deal with the work-based coverage. employers make changes to their plan every year -- they have before the affordable care act became law and will continue to do so. you would need to check with your husband's employer to learn about the changes its making to company health benefits.
my husband is currently employed by a large corporation and i am covered by his health care plan. . what will the affordable care act mean for individuals like me? will my plan change? will it cover less? will it last much longer after the affordable care act is enacted? also i would like to know who qualifies for the new healthcare plan.
