Sponsored Green Card for Parents – Medical Insurance

My parents has been sponsored green card ( US Citizen sponsored GC for Parents) category. Parents have no employment. Also as per the law we are not supposed to apply for Medicaid since it is sponsor responsibility to take care of Medical Insurance benefits. If we apply through HealthCareGov there is a potential chance that application might be submitted for Medicaid Eligibility determination. Their application might be denied as they do not meet 5 year criteria or 40 quarters criteria. As per my understanding it would impact their Citizenship application if Medicaid application has been submitted – even though it would be denied. Please can someone guide how to apply for Medical Insurance for my parents. We are willing to pay the premium – if it is under $500 i.e. if they can get subsidies. I would like to avoid any future impact on their citizenship application.

Thanks for your help in advance. Really need some suggestions on how to get their Insurance.
