Some of my family members do not currently have health insurance coverage. What if I can’t afford to buy/pay for their coverage?

It is no longer about your family. It is about each individual and the mandate that each individual be covered. All individuals have been ordered to purchase health insurance. The individual may qualify for Medicaid Expansion parameters, by filling out a 16 page application to apply for a partial waiver to help reduce your outgoing cost for your policy. It will be subsidized by the American taxpayers.
