Obamacare in 2026 — What Changed

Many people are seeing higher marketplace premiums in 2026 after the enhanced premium tax credits expired at the end of 2025. If your Obamacare plan got more expensive — or you didn't qualify for savings — you're not stuck. A licensed agent can check whether you still qualify for marketplace help and show you private plans you can enroll in any time of year, so you can compare real costs side by side.

This page is for comparing your coverage options. We are not Healthcare.gov and not a government agency — see the notice below.

Do I Qualify for Obamacare?

Eligibility and any savings depend mainly on your income, household size, and location. The fastest way to find out is to answer a few quick questions and let a licensed agent check for you — at no cost. If you qualify for marketplace savings, they'll show you; if a private plan is the better fit, they'll show you that too.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions

Did Obamacare go away in 2026?

No. The ACA marketplace still exists. What changed is that the enhanced premium subsidies expired on December 31, 2025, so many people's marketplace premiums went up substantially in 2026. That's why more shoppers now compare private year-round plans alongside ACA options.

Should I choose an ACA plan or a private plan?

It depends mainly on subsidy eligibility and health. If your income qualifies you for meaningful ACA savings or you need guaranteed-issue coverage for pre-existing conditions, ACA may fit best — but you generally must wait for Open Enrollment (Nov 1 – Jan 15 in most states) or a qualifying life event. If you don't qualify for big subsidies and are reasonably healthy, private year-round plans are often less expensive and can start now. A licensed agent compares both for you, free.
