I am covered by Medicaid, but I’m wondering if I can drop my Medicaid and purchase one of the health plans offered through the Marketplace instead?

If you are currently covered by Medicaid or have been told you are eligible for Medicaid, you are not eligible for premium tax credits that make Marketplace coverage more affordable for people with lower incomes. Without the Marketplace tax credits, the cost of a Marketplace plan will likely be unaffordable. Medicaid offers comprehensive coverage with no or low premiums and limited out-of-pocket costs.
