Parsons, WV – Beginning in October 1, 2013, there is a new way to find a quality health insurance plan that fits your needs and your budget through the new WV Health Insurance Marketplace.    All plans must cover the care you need, including doctor visits, hospital stays, preventive care, prescriptions, and more.   Low-cost and free plans are available, and financial help is available based on how much money you make.
No one can be denied coverage because they have a pre-existing condition.   There is no sales pitch or fine print, just side-by-side comparisons of each plan.  In addition to the health insurance marketplace, Medicaid health coverage will be available to anyone who lives in West Virginia, is a US citizen, is under age 65, and earns less that 138% of the federal poverty level.  The following chart highlights some of the income levels for eligibility:
Medicaid Qualifies    Health Insurance Marketplace Qualifies
Family    100%    138%    211%    250%    300%    400%
1    $11,496    $15,856    $24,264    $28,740    $34,488    $45,960
2    $15,516    $21,404    $32,748    $38,796    $46,548    $62,040
3    $19,536    $26,951    $41,232    $48,840    $58,608    $78,120
4    $23,556    $32,499    $49,704    $58,596    $70,668    $94, 200
5    $27,576    $38,047    $58,188    $68,940    $82,728    $110,280
6    $31,596    $43,594    $66,672    $78,996    $94,788    $126,360
Pregnant women still qualify for Medicaid up to 158% FPL with family sizes and incomes as follows:
1 = $18,156    2  =$24,516    3 = $30,864    4 = $37,212    5 = $43,572    6 = $49,920
