Obamacare is a healthcare reform law that focuses on expanding access to affordable health insurance, improving healthcare quality, and reducing healthcare costs. It achieves this through various provisions, including the establishment of health insurance marketplaces, Medicaid expansion, and consumer protections.

• Eligibility is based on various factors, including income, household size, and immigration status. Most U.S. citizens and legal residents are eligible to enroll, and Medicaid has been expanded in certain states to cover more low-income adults.

• Obamacare plans offer a comprehensive set of essential health benefits, ensuring that individuals have access to vital services such as preventive care, prescription drugs, mental health services, and maternity care. These benefits contribute to a more holistic approach to healthcare.

• Enrolling in Obamacare is easy. You can sign up during the annual open enrollment period or qualify for special enrollment periods due to life events like marriage, having a baby, or losing other health coverage. Explore our step-by-step guide to the enrollment process.

Financial assistance is a cornerstone of Obamacare. Premium tax credits and cost-sharing reductions are available to help lower-income individuals and families afford health insurance.
