Starting in 2014 most all US citizens will be required to have an approved form of health insurance. Some exceptions are made for those with religious convictions.
Most will receive health insurance through their employer or from the taxpayer (Medicare, Medicaid, SCHIP, etc.). If you do not have an employer group health insurance plan or a taxpayer funded plan you will be required to purchase individual health insurance.
Low income individuals may qualify for a premium subsidy if they purchase through a health insurance exchange. You may also purchase an approved policy off exchange through a health insurance agent or direct from a carrier.
