What does each poverty level line mean in 2027?
- Under 100%: no tax credit. In states that expanded Medicaid, adults qualify for Medicaid. Elsewhere, adults may fall in the coverage gap.
- Up to 138%: adults qualify for Medicaid in the 40 states and DC that expanded it. See Medicaid income limits by state.
- 100% to 250%: silver plans carry extra savings that lower deductibles and copays.
- 100% to 400%: the premium tax credit, if you can't get Medicaid or affordable job coverage.
- Over 400%: no tax credit in 2027. See the 2027 subsidy cliff.
