La Ley de Cuidado de Salud Asequible (Affordable Care Act, ACA) creó mercados de salud a nivel estatal y federal, donde los individuos elegibles pueden comprar planes de salud privados y recibir subsidios para ayudar a pagar las primas mensuales y otros gastos. Los planes de salud disponibles en estos mercados se clasifican como de bronce, plata, oro y platino, dependiendo de cómo los planes y los individuos cubiertos comparten el costo del cuidado de salud. Los subsidios se basan en el nivel de ingreso y se administran a través del sistema tributario.
Los inmigrantes presentes legalmente en EE. UU. generalmente son elegibles para participar en los mercados y recibir subsidios, con algunas excepciones. Este documento da una breve reseña de la elegibilidad para participar en los mercados de salud y cómo se verifica la misma.
