ACA Marketplace subsidies remain available in 2026 but have reverted to pre-2021 eligibility rules following the expiration of COVID-era enhancements, reinstating the subsidy cliff for households earning above 400% of the Federal Poverty Level. Some states have introduced additional support programs to soften the impact of reduced federal subsidies.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Healthtech Infrastructure.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face stricter ACA subsidy eligibility from 2026, with federal aid pulled from households above 400% FPL, making you reassess target customer affordability and possibly expand state-level subsidy options in your outreach or product design.
