I don't hear the fat lady singing yet, but I'll be cheering for selfish reasons if it actually gets extended. That's enough to get me to medicare.
Same here.

Thanks, it seems for one person in household those with MAGI $18,755 to $54,360 in 2022 are not affected by this legislation then.The subsidies cover those with income in excess of 400% of the federal poverty level.
Sinema is still a wildcard for the Dems

The subsidy formula for 2021 and 2022 is much more generous, it isn't just about the cliff.Regarding ACA subsidies: it is all about ACA cliff i.e. applicable to those with MAGI greater than $50K correct? I assume subsidies for people with income less than $50K will be in place anyway?
We have an ACA silver plan for three people (myself, wife and daughter) and I manage our income to maintain the maximum subsidy. So in 2021 we got an increase in our ACA subsidy due to the COvid relief plan and ended up paying something like $12.50 per month. Then in 2022 our premium went back to the old levels (approx $320/month). My question - will this legislation maintain our existing premiums or revert to the lower premiums we saw in 2021?

The extension is huge for us as well since it will get us both to Medicare. We've had a bronze plan (HSA) the past 2 years and our premium is $0. Crazy!
I would agree with secondcor521 above. Your 2021 numbers were likely skewed by the late timing of the legislation for that year. Your 2022 numbers should be more in line with what you should expect for 2023 IF the new legislation successfully passes to extend the enhanced subsidies.
However, don’t make too many plans based on those numbers. Insurers may drastically raise rates which can have very changing effects on premiums. Especially if the baseline Silver plan gets altered. Yes, the subsidy might go up too. But there are several moving parts before premium costs to you can be certain.
OK, that makes sense. Still good news that the subsidies will carry forward.The subsidies have worked the same way since the ARP Act was passed in spring 2021, although many ACA enrollees had to wait until early summer or even fall for their premiums to be adjusted to reflect the new legislation.
If you've seen that much of a change in your premium, I suspect that your situation has changed (family size, address, plan, or AGI). The other small possibility is that your marketplace adjusted your subsidy so late, and they took into account what you had already paid in the first part of 2021, that your premium dropped to that low number.
If passed, this new legislation extends the subsidies to continue to work the same way for the next three calendar years.

Yeah, our ACA premiums went from about $1,200 month to $4/month for Aug - Dec. 2021. I’ll be watching this bill closely along with you!
Our healthcare is so messed up. Someone with your income/net worth should not be paying only $4/mo but no one should be paying $1200/mo just for the premium.
Well, it made it past the Senate Parliamentarian with some revision (insulin price caps). Vote-o-rama is next. I think that this piece of legislation is a done deal.

No way should it be $276 a month with $23K income on the ACA, it should be almost nothing.Howdy,
We are in SC, myrtle beach. Our MAGI is a ROTH conversion. I can make it anything.
This year I plan on making it $23k. My CPA just confirmed our part is $276/ month for a BCBS silver plan.
How can that make sense unless it is a SC thing?
Any thoughts...
Thx
