Individual Mandate in Reform
Under health care reform law, all people must have minimum essential coverage beginning January 1, 2014.
People have "minimum essential coverage" if they have a:
Government-sponsored plan
Employer-sponsored plan
Individual plan
People can choose to buy health insurance on or off state insurance exchanges that will open in 2014. Some people can also get federal premium assistance on an exchange.
If a person cannot keep minimum essential coverage, the Internal Revenue Service will collect a tax penalty from him or her. The monthly tax penalty is described as 1/12th of the greater of:
For 2014: $95 per uninsured adult in the household (capped at $285 per household) or one percent of the household income over the filing threshold
For 2015: $325 per uninsured adult in the household (capped at $975 per household) or two percent of the household income over the filing threshold
For 2016: $695 per uninsured adult in the household (capped at $2,085 per household) or 2.5 percent of the household income over the filing threshold
The penalty will be half of the amount for people under age 18.
There are a few exceptions to the penalty, including:
Religious reasons
Not present in the United States
In prison
Not able to pay for coverage that is more than eight percent of the household income
An income that is below 100 percent of the poverty Level
Having a hardship waiver
Not covered for less than three months during the year.
