Original Subsidies Under ARPA (2021):The ARPA temporarily expanded Obamacare subsidies to make health insurance more affordable during the COVID-19 pandemic. These subsidies reduced premiums for many Americans, but they were set to expire at the end of 2025.
Expansion Under the IRA (2022):The IRA extended these enhanced subsidies through 2031, significantly increasing the income threshold for eligibility. Originally, subsidies were available to individuals and families with incomes up to 400% of the federal poverty level (FPL), which in 2025 would be approximately $120,000 for a family of four. The IRA raised this threshold, allowing families with incomes up to 600,000% of the FPL to receive subsidies. This meant that even high-income families, including those making $600,000 per year, could qualify for reduced premiums.
