Related but different but this kind of lunacy happened to my mother while she was alive. her pension/retirement were too high by around 50 so she couldn't quality for assistance. but she had no money and couldn't pay for it herself either because her health expenses ate all her money so she had none
In Murphysboro, Illinois, a 64-yr old couple earning up to $84,600 next year can enroll in a GOLD PPO for under $11/month...WITHOUT the enhanced federal tax credits.
If that same couple earns $84,601, however, they'll have to pay *at least* $3,712/month for a BRONZE plan...w/a $17,200 deductible.
