ACA Premium Tax Credits
ACA Premium Tax Credits (also called Premium Tax Credits or PTCs) help low- and middle-income individuals and families afford health insurance purchased through the ACA Marketplace by reducing monthly premium costs. The credit amount is based on household income relative to the Federal Poverty Level — households earning between 100% and 400% of FPL are eligible, and under enhanced provisions through 2025, higher-income households may also qualify. Credits can be applied in advance to reduce monthly premiums or claimed as a lump sum when filing taxes.

Coverage includes routine check-ups, immunizations, doctor and dental visits, hospital care, lab and X-ray services, and prescription drugs. In some states, CHIP also covers pregnant women and parents of eligible children.

Energy Audits for Low-Income Households
Free or low-cost home energy audits for low-income households are delivered through the Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP), LIHEAP Energy Crisis funding, and state and utility energy efficiency programs. A home energy audit identifies air leaks, insulation deficiencies, inefficient appliances, and heating and cooling problems — providing a prioritized list of improvements that can be addressed through weatherization and retrofit programs. Audit results are used to qualify homes for free energy efficiency upgrades under WAP and other assistance programs.

Extra Help — Medicare Part D Low Income Subsidy
Extra Help (also called the Low Income Subsidy or LIS) assists Medicare beneficiaries with limited income and resources in paying Medicare Part D prescription drug plan premiums, deductibles, and copays, potentially saving over $5,000 per year.

Beneficiaries who receive Medicaid, SSI, or Medicare Savings Program benefits are automatically enrolled.

Hill-Burton Free or Reduced-Cost Health Care
The Hill-Burton Program obligates hospitals and other health facilities that received federal construction grants or loans under the Hill-Burton Act to provide free or reduced-cost care to eligible patients. Obligated facilities must offer a certain amount of uncompensated services each year and cannot refuse care to someone unable to pay. To receive Hill-Burton free care, patients must apply and meet income guidelines — typically at or below the HHS Federal Poverty Level guidelines — at a participating facility.
