If you have a disability, you have a number of options for health coverage with Virginia's Insurance Marketplace.
If you have a disability and currently have Medicaid or Medicare you're considered covered under the health care law and don't need a Virginia's Insurance Marketplace plan.
However, if you have a disability, don’t qualify for disability benefits and need health coverage, Virginia's Insurance Marketplace encourages you to create a Virginia's Insurance Marketplace account on www.marketplace.virginia.gov and fill out a Virginia's Insurance Marketplace health coverage enrollment application. This is the best way to find out if you qualify for a private health plan with premium tax credits and other financial assistance based on your income.
Call the Virginia's Insurance Marketplace Contact Center if you need assistance in creating your Virginia's Insurance Marketplace account and filling out your enrollment application by calling 1-888-687-1501.
People with disabilities have rights and protections under the health care law, including coverage for pre-existing conditions, no annual or lifetime coverage limits, and free preventive care.
