What is the “Family Glitch”?

“When the Affordable Care Act (ACA) was enacted in 2010, there was a provision that left about five million people in a category that became known as the Family Glitch. This group was unable to qualify for tax credits through the Healthcare Marketplace but couldn’t afford employer-sponsored family coverage either. Here’s what happened:
Individuals who were offered health insurance through their employer didn’t qualify for an Advance Premium Tax Credit through the Marketplace if their annual premium was deemed affordable, less than 9.61% (for 2022) of their total annual household income. The eligibility for family plans was also based on whether the employee-only premium was considered affordable. The result was that many family members were determined to be ineligible for tax credits but they had unaffordable employer-sponsored coverage as well.
Effective with the 2023 plan year, a new rule to fix the glitch bases the affordability determination for employer-sponsored health insurance on the cost to cover the employee and family members independently. If the annual premium for an employer-sponsored family plan is more than 9.12% (for 2023) of the total annual household income, the family or individual family members could now be eligible for premium tax credits on the Marketplace.” (Your Health Idaho)

Do I have to enroll through Your Health Idaho?

If you don’t qualify for the premium tax credit because you make too much, or you are offered insurance through your work, you can directly enroll in a plan through the carrier. We are contracted to work with all major insurance carriers in Idaho.
