With no extension of enhanced tax credits, ACA enrollees are going to start the year with premium payments increasing by an average of 114%, or over $1,000 a year per person. Some will find a way to pay it, some have switched to higher deductibles, and some have dropped coverage.

Doubling of out-of-pocket premiums for ACA enrollees isn’t hypothetical. We estimate premium payments will rise by an average of 114%, or $1,016, next year if the enhanced tax credits end.
New KFF polling shows if the amount Marketplace enrollees pay in premiums doubles:
- 1 in 3 say they’re very likely to look for a lower-premium Marketplace plan (with higher deductibles & co-pays).
- 1 in 4 say they’re very likely to go without insurance next year.
