Health insurance offered through the Health Insurance Marketplace is also called Obamacare. The “Marketplace” offers health coverage to individuals and families, often at a reduced rate, typically lower than buying a plan directly from an insurer. The difference is that eligibility for financial assistance may depend on various factors such as age, income, and geographic location. Insurance is usually offered until an individual turns 65 years old.  After age 65, in most cases, an individual is no longer eligible for an individual health insurance plan. There are certain circumstances where an individual 65 or older may be able to stay with an individual plan, such as employer or group insurance.  Click here if you’d like to visit our Healthcare Marketplace page.
