In October 2021, KFF published a revised ACA Health Insurance Marketplace Calculator to help consumers understand how much they would pay when buying coverage on the Affordable Care Act marketplaces for coverage in 2022. The calculator reflects increased tax credits under the American Rescue Plan Act. Open enrollment for health plans effective Jan. 1, began Nov. 1 and ends on Jan. 15 in most states. Some state-run marketplaces have different end dates. The calculator allows consumers and journalists to enter age, income, Zip code and family size to estimate eligibility for subsidies and payment and to know if they may be eligible for Medicaid.
