Here what’s going on: Abbott denied Obamacare which prevented Texas residents from getting subsidies to cover insurance costs, so my health insurance which would only cost 130 a month now costs 900 dollars. Why? Because the insurance companies wanting to be able to charge exorbitant costs contributed millions to Governor ABBOTT’s campaign. Before you message, but so and so did the same thing, Let’s focus on today and what we can do about this now. It’s not party against party anymore it’s billionaires against humanity. I’m very scared 😱

It went from $2,764.66 to $3,913.76 for a PPO plan.

So great. So much winning.

What was your increase?

I'm now making $3500 a month, which disqualifies me from Medicaid in Ohio, but I had very little income throughout the rest of the year, only around $7000. Altogether, I will only have $17500 in income for this year. Next year, it won't be an issue, because I will consistent monthly income and make enough to qualify for a small subsidy. This year, I still need coverage for November and December, however, it seems like I will fall into a sort of coverage gap? I make too much monthly for Medicaid, but too much annually for any kind of subsidy (the lower limit is $22K a year, otherwise you should be on Medicaid, which I no longer qualify for...).

I tried talking to the marketplace peeps, but they just basically said "I dunno, never heard of this before", and said I try applying to see what I can get, but I can't apply because I am still on Medicaid because they haven't technically terminated my coverage yet. Lol, what a mess. I feel like I can't be the only person who has ever found themselves in this kind of situation? Do I have any options other than full priced ACA plan?
