I don't sell individual health plans and am not familiar with how the Marketplace works other than what others tell me.
I have a woman 54, smoker, single, employed, earns about $20k/yr., no real assets other than home left to her by mother, facing cancer diagnosis.
Her ACA Ambetter plan $54/mo, $600 deductible (I think) is going away because there is a "data matching error". May 1 plan will be around $800/mo with $14k deductible. If she shows tax returns, June 1 will go back down to $150ish, $1250ish deductible.
This happened to her last year. Her plan changed four times due to "data matching error" and each time she had to jump through a hoop to prove her personal situation had not changed. She has proof of mailing tax return for 2017 but never received her $8 refund so now she's worried it was never processed.
I'm just trying to come up with a solution for May. Too late for cancer plan, hospital indems and short term health won't help, too much income for Medicaid.
Any ideas I can give this woman would be appreciated.
