Health Insurance in Arlington uses Subsidies on Short-Term Policies in 2020

Arlington health insurance can now use subsidies to purchase low cost short-term health insurance policies. This is good for these policies are less expensive and give coverage most people can afford.

Arlington Health Insurance recipients will be able to use federal funding to provide subsidies to people buying short-term health insurance policies. These policies do not provide comprehensive coverage such as the 10 essential health benefits found in the Affordable Care Act (ACA).

The new policy, under the Trump Administration, could begin taking effect in January of 2020. It would allow Arlington Health Insurance recipients to ask for waivers from Affordable Care Act provisions. These provisions not only govern subsidies that help pay for premiums, but also the benefits insurers must include in plans offered on the federal marketplace to consumers buying their own coverage.

Health Insurance Agents in Arlington, Texas have clients who are asking for more flexibility, said Seema Verma, administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). This approach would allow the cities and states “to provide consumers plan options that best meet their needs, while at the same time ensuring that those with preexisting conditions retain access to the same coverage as today,” she said.

Under the ACA, states can ask to reconfigure their insurance markets and rules. The Obama administration required any changes to provide the same comprehensive coverage as the health law and not result in fewer people enrolling or increasing costs for taxpayers. This will greatly help residents looking for health insurance in Arlington, Texas.

“The big change is that people getting health insurance in Arlington no longer have to worry about making sure that their preexisting conditions or their high health care needs maintain enrollment in comprehensive coverage,” said John Thornton, a health insurance agent in Arlington, Texas.
