Please help… How do side hustles effect Marketplace insurance?

I'm SO lost right now and I hope you guys can please help me, because I don't really know how this works.

I live in Michigan. Our household size went from 3 to 2. Not surprisingly, I am no longer eligible for Medicaid (I was expecting this),so then they put me on "Plan only" (whatever that means…) and the paper stated that I would have to go to the Marketplace for health insurance.

I'm still waiting for healthcare.gov to receive my .jpg's of my identification documents, then I can look for health insurance on there. But what I really want is to start working on Fiverr or any other online website where you can get side gigs… and I'm scared to start because I don't know how my side income will effect what health insurance I choose, or what factors I need to consider. I already have some ideas for what I want to get paid to do online, but I'm too frozen in anxiety to start.

Should I wait until I have successfully been enrolled in whatever health insurance I choose and then ask THEM what my income limit is? I don't know what to do…. Thanks 🙂
