The Affordable Care Act mandates all insurance companies that offer coverage through the Marketplace to provide four tier plans to choose from. The four plan levels, in brief, are:
These plans have high deductibles and essentially provide protection from worst-case scenarios, like a serious accident or extended illness. They are available to people under age 30 and to people with hardship exemptions.
If you’re under 30 or are exempt from purchasing the minimum coverage required due to financial hardship, you may be eligible for a catastrophic plan. This coverage offers essential health benefits but with high deductibles. Anyone can purchase a catastrophic plan but it will not be a substitute for the minimum required coverage.
