Explore your options

If you have job-based health insurance you like, you can keep it. However, you may be able to change to Marketplace coverage if you prefer.

If your employer does not offer health insurance and does not plan to in 2023, you may need to purchase insurance through the Marketplace. Those without health coverage in 2023 could be subject to a government penalty fee.

If you run a small business, you can go to the Small Business Health Options Program Marketplace at HealthCare.gov to find out about providing coverage for your employees.

If you have Medicare, you’re already covered and don’t need to make any changes.

Prepare to apply

The Marketplace offers different types of health plans to meet a variety of needs and budgets. You’ll need to figure out how much you want to spend on health coverage each month.

Most people using the Marketplace will qualify to save money. To find out how much you’re able to save, it will help to have these things close by when you apply:

  • Social Security number(s) (or document numbers for legal immigrants)
  • Birth dates
  • Pay stubs, W-2 forms or “Wage and Tax Statements”
  • Policy numbers for any current health insurance
  • Information about any health insurance you or your family could get from your jobs
