Newly Employed Can I Keep ObamaCare?
I signed up with Obama Care last year while I was a graduate student. I have been recently employed with a nonprofit in Austin, Texas. I am unclear about the regulations with keeping my coverage through Obama Care. Do I need to to have medical through my new employer? Or can I keep coverage through Obama Care?
Answer
If and when your employer coverage starts you'll become ineligible for cost assistance. You can keep your Marketplace plan, but can't keep cost assistance. If they don't offer you benefits, then you can keep cost assistance and the plan.
