Why Do I Need Health Insurance?
Because just 1 unexpected moment can change everything.
- 1 kitchen accident …
- 1 fall …
- 1 jump off the swings …
- 1 lingering cough …
- 1 frightening diagnosis …
Health insurance protects you from the unexpected — and helps you avoid life-changing medical debt. With help from MHP Salud, many people qualify for coverage for less than $10/month.
Plus, we can check if you’re eligible for financial assistance to lower your costs even more.
Do I Qualify for Health Insurance?
You qualify for health insurance through the national health insurance marketplace (an online “store” to shop for insurance!) if you:
- Live in the U.S.
- Are a U.S. citizen, national or otherwise lawfully present
- Are not currently in jail or prison
Unsure if you qualify? We can help! We can also see what else you may qualify for, such as Medicaid, CHIP and/or Medicare.

What if I Don’t Enroll in Health Insurance?
You’re taking a big risk.
Medical debt is the #1 cause of bankruptcy in the U.S. Health insurance can help protect your physical, mental and financial health.
Your family’s health can’t wait.
It’s not a matter of if a health emergency will come … it’s a matter of when. Health insurance helps you get the treatment and care you need without significant medical expenses.
During Open Enrollment, typically in November, anyone can apply for coverage through the Marketplace.
There’s also a period called Special Enrollment, which lets you enroll in insurance outside of open enrollment if you meet specific criteria through a major life change, such as having a baby, losing insurance through an employer, or getting married or divorced.
