What are premium tax credits?

Premium tax credits are a new benefit to help lower and moderate income individuals and families pay for a private health insurance plan. People who are eligible for premium tax credits can use them to reduce the monthly cost of their premiums or can get the money back at the end of the year on their taxes. You can find out if you are eligible for premium tax credits by filling out the DC Health Link application for financial assistance.
