You will have to use your upcoming, expected income. If you enter your current earnings (<1500 a month) it will simply direct you to apply for MaineCare.

For example: if I put in a 26 year old making 21,000 per year in Cumberland County, it will output a premium subsidy of $338/month, and suggest a $6/month plan (the cost after the premium subsidy is applied) with a $500 deductible.

Or if I put in a 26 year old making $35,000 per year, it will output a premium subsidy of $216 , and suggest a $174/month plan with a $2,500 deductible.

Not a problem! I'm glad you can stay on - MaineCare helped my family through some difficult times. I am glad to see it continuing to help others.

Mainecare is better than subsidies. If you qualify for Mainecare, absolutely take that.
