Getting Health Insurance through the ACA Marketplace

As a result of containment measures being taken to minimize spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), many Travis County residents are losing their jobs, their income, and their health insurance. If these life changes happen to you or someone in your household, you could get health insurance through the Affordable Care Act (ACA) Health Insurance Marketplace.

  • The Health Insurance Marketplace offers special enrollment periods for:
  • Loss of qualifying health coverage
  • Changes in household income – meaning loss of a job
  • Changes in your household size
  • Change in residence
  • Change in status

If you are currently enrolled in a Health Insurance Marketplace plan, and your income changes, contact the Marketplace to report the change. You could be eligible for a tax credit.

Call 1-800-318-2596 or visit healthcare.gov.

Foundation Communities also provides assistance with Health Insurance Marketplace applications (by appointment over the phone). Below are various ways you can schedule appointments for assistance to determine if you have qualifying events and are eligible for a Special Enrollment Period:

  • Via the following link: https://booknow.appointment-plus.com/yr4hl26q/
  • Leave a voicemail message at 512.381.4520
  • Email: enroll@foundcom.org
  • Call 2-1-1

As of today, Foundation Communities is not providing tax services. Due to the current situation, all in person services have been temporarily suspended. Foundation Communities is working on implementing a virtual process for tax assistance.

Non-Citizens/Non-Legal Permanent Residents

Even if you are not a U.S. citizen or legal U.S. permanent resident, you should get tested and treated if needed. COVID-19-related care will not hurt your immigration application, and it is okay if a government program pays for your care.


More Options

If you or someone in your household is being affected by income or health insurance loss, you may also be eligible for local health coverage programs such as the Medical Access Program (MAP), Medicaid, or Children’s Health Insurance Plan (CHIP). In Travis County, call Central Health at 512-978-8130 to see what program may work for you.
