Here at eHealth, we work with the Health Insurance Marketplace to help you get the health coverage you need. Read below to learn important information about how to get coverage through eHealth and the Marketplace.
The Marketplace is a shopping and enrollment service for health coverage created by the Affordable Care Act. The official Marketplace website is HealthCare.gov. The Marketplace helps people find out if they qualify for lower premiums or savings on out-of-pocket costs based on their income, or to see if they're eligible for free or low-cost coverage through Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program.
You can apply and enroll with us. We'll send your information to the Marketplace through HealthCare.gov and let you know which programs and savings for which you're eligible.
If you fill out an application and learn that you're eligible for coverage through Medicaid or CHIP, the Marketplace will automatically send your information to your state. We'll give you an eligibility results notice with more information.
Even if you get coverage through eHealth, it's important to remember that you'll still get information directly from the Marketplace. Look for notices in the mail from the Health Insurance Marketplace and emails from HealthCare.gov. It's important to read these notices and emails because they contain important information about your coverage that you'll only get from the Marketplace. We'll tell you how to set up a Marketplace account after you finish applying for and enrolling in coverage.
