Getting health insurance that you can afford is important. Thanks to the ACA, you can get health coverage to help keep you and your family healthy. The ACA stands for the Affordable Care Act, sometimes called "Obamacare." If you are an immigrant or refugee, there are some things about the ACA you need to know.
The ACA helps people get health insurance through the Marketplace. Your options for getting health coverage and help paying for coverage might be different depending on your immigration and citizenship status. You might have a "mixed status" family, meaning that people in your family have different immigration and citizenship statuses. You might have family members who can’t buy health insurance through the Marketplace, and some family members who can use the Marketplace, like lawfully present immigrants.
We will talk about what the ACA means for you and your family, and how you can get coverage through the Marketplace and public assistance program such as Medicaid.
