What Is Changing With the Affordable Care Act in January 2026

In recent years, ACA Marketplace plans were more affordable because additional federal subsidies lowered monthly premiums. These subsidies are set to expire at the end of 2025 unless they are extended.

If these subsidies end, many people may see higher insurance costs starting in January 2026. The increase will depend on income, location, and plan, but for many households it could strain monthly budgets.

The ACA is not going away. What is changing is the amount of financial help that keeps coverage affordable.

Higher Premiums Do Not Always Mean Better Care

Even with higher monthly payments, traditional insurance often still includes

High deductibles before coverage begins
Copays for routine doctor visits
Limited appointment availability
Short and rushed consultations
Complicated billing and insurance paperwork

For many people, this means paying more while still struggling to access timely and personalized primary care.
