    No, under the mandate you will not go to jail.  You will be paying a penalty however that is tacked on to your income tax.  Refusal to pay taxes can result in fines or imprisonment whether it involves health insurance or not.  You have to decide whether you are going to pick up health insurance or pay the penalty.
