Many people are doubtful they could find a plan to meet their families needs with a tax credit in the amount of $1,000 for an individual or $3,000 for families. Half (50%) of the uninsured and those with private health coverage say they would be “very” or “somewhat” likely to find such a plan, about a quarter (26%) say they would be “not too” or “not at all” likely, and 23% say they don’t know enough to say.

Given a $1,000/$3,000 tax credit, two-thirds (67%) of non-elderly adults say they would be likely to supplement it with some of their own money to purchase a better plan, while one in five (20%) say they would purchase whatever they could find for the amount of the tax credit, and 9% would go without insurance.
