Is my job's health plan affordable for 2027?

Reviewed October 21, 2026 by Christopher York, licensed Maine health insurance producer (license PRR259230)

For 2027, affordable means the employee's share of the cheapest employee-only plan is no more than 10.22% of household income.

A spouse and children are tested on the family price, not the employee-only price.

If the job's plan is affordable and meets minimum value, the employee may not get a premium tax credit. Family members may still qualify.

The same test as the job-plan guide. Nothing you type is sent.

Does that job offer a plan that can cover the family?

If the household may be near MaineCare's income limit, apply at MyMaineConnection.gov or call 1-855-797-4357 before buying a plan. Most employer plans meet the minimum-value test. CoverME.gov checks that too.
