The 2021 ACA Open Enrollment begins on Nov. 1, 2020 and ends on Dec. 15 2020.
To shop for 2021 Individual and Family ACA-qualified (Obamacare) health insurance policies from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois please click the logo to the left. Depending on your total household M.A.G.I – Modified Adjusted Gross Income – you may qualify for one or both federal health insurance subsidies. Once you decide upon a plan, you will be able to obtain your subsidy and finish the entire application process much faster than working solely with Healthcare.gov. You can also purchase ACA-qualified plans without a federal subsidy using the same link. To determine the income levels necessary to qualify for federal health insurance subsidies and to view the summary of benefits for all Blue Cross plans, please scroll down this page.
Determining your eligibility for one or more health insurance subsidies
Depending on what you expect your 2021 total household MAGI – Modified Adjusted Gross Income = (after deductions but before taxes) to be, you may qualify for a significant APTC – Advance Premium Tax Credit (federal subsidy) under the new health care law to lower your premiums. You may also qualify for a CSR – Cost Sharing Reduction subsidy to lower your deductible. If you believe your 2021 total household MAGI will be lower than:
$51,040 for an individual
$68,960 for a couple
$86,880 for a family of three
$104,800 for a family of four
$122,720 for a family of five
$140,640 for a family of six
you will qualify for an Advance Premium Tax Credit which will substantially reduce your health insurance premium.
If you qualify for a subsidy please click “Shop for ACA-qualified (Obamacare) plans.” You will be able to pick a plan, get your subsidy and finish the entire process much faster than working solely with Healthcare.gov. You can also purchase ACA-qualified plans without a subsidy using the same link if you do not qualify for an Advance Premium Tax Credit.

Please note: If your income is lower than the Federal Poverty Level Information in your state, which is less than 138% of the FPL – Federal Poverty Level in states that expanded Medicaid and less than 100% of the FPL in states that did not. You will be offered Medicaid and as such will not be able to qualify for subsidized private health insurance. You can purchase private health insurance even if you qualify for Medicaid but you must do so without a subsidy. Click the chart below to determine the current Federal Poverty Level and percentages above it.
Please also note: If you qualify for a federal health insurance subsidy and your state has expanded SCHIP – State Children’s Health Insurance Plan – you may not be able to insure your children on your policy. Healthcare.gov will instead send a referral to your state’s SCHIP program. In Illinois, that program is entitled “All Kids Covered”. You may wish at that juncture to purchase private health insurance at full price for your children instead if you cannot find a Pediatrician who will accept “All Kids Covered”.
