Get covered, avoid the penalty

Going without coverage in 2016 could cost you $695 or more. Find the best plan that works for you and avoid the penalty.

Health insurance may be more affordable than you think. 8 out of 10 people who enrolled in a health plan at HealthCare.gov qualified for financial help to make their monthly payments more affordable. In fact, most people can find monthly premiums for $75 dollars or less per month. Having health insurance is the law. If you choose to go without health insurance coverage in 2016 you may have to pay a penalty when you file your 2016 taxes.

Visit HealthCare.gov today to update your information and see if you qualify for savings.

Important: The penalty for not having health insurance is increasing. If you don’t have health coverage in 2016, you’ll risk having to pay $695 per person or more for the year.

Don’t miss your chance to get covered. The December 15 deadline is coming up.
