Struggling with the cost of NC health

insurance premiums?

• Federal assistance is available to help pay for the cost of health insurance purchased through Obamacare.

• This assistance is known as a health insurance premium “subsidy”.

Do you qualify for a health insurance

premium subsidy?

• If you purchase a health insurance plan under

Obamacare, you may be able to receive a subsidy

if your individual or family income is between 100%

and 400% of the federal poverty level.

Are the benefits offered

under Obamacare just as good?

• Some people have the impression that the benefits

offered under subsidized Obamacare plans are not

as good as the benefits under traditional plans

without subsidies.

• Nothing could be farther from the truth!

• In many cases, the plans available through

Obamacare offer more benefits than the traditional

plans previously available.
