Why is our monthly payment so high now? (Covered California/medi-cal)
Hello folks
We are a family of 4: me, my dad, mom, sister I am 22, my sister 24, my parents 49
Our household income went down from last year from 71k to 59k this year
This year we put in our household info to renew medical/covered california.
I normally have medi-cal but the eligibility letter from covered ca says i am no longer eligible for medi cal or covered ca or the advanced premium tax credit. And i got a medi cal termination letter in the mail.
this is fine since i can join my parents insurance since im under 26, and i will start a full time job whose insurance i can take in a few months.
My parents’ says they do not qualify for covered ca or medical or advanced premium tax credit
Their monthly premium bill they just got is extremely high at $711 when it was previously below $200 (probably because of the advanced premium tax credit)
My sister qualifies for medi cal
What i don’t understand is our household income actually decreased from last year. How did we lose the advanced premium tax credit? How did i lose medi-cal?
I am calling covered california when they open monday but can anyone give me a clue as to what happened?
