Study: 67k Ohioans have qualified for ACA tax credits

About 67,000 Ohioans who signed up for coverage through the insurance marketplace between Oct. 1 and March 1 qualified for a total of $186 million in tax credits, according to new analysis from the Kaiser Family Foundation (Source: “Obamacare enrollees getting $10 billion in tax credits, report says,” Columbus Dispatch, March 28, 2014).

Nationally, the Kaiser analysis found, nearly 3.5 million U.S. resident qualified for a combined $10 billion in ACA tax credits. Those totals exclude those signing up for coverage this month.

The Ohio total works out to an average credit of $2,770 per person.
