“I’d be better off paying the fine than Medicare & BCBS supplement.”
For now,maybe. But, not for long.
2015:
Families$975 or 2 percent of income, whichever is greater ($81.25 per month).
Individual adults$325.()$27.08 per month)
2016:
Families$2,085 or 2.5 percent of income, whichever is greater ($173.75 per month).
Individual adults$695 ($57.91 per month).
