A Catastrophic Health Plan meets all of the requirements applicable to other Qualified Health Plans, except that it doesn’t cover any benefits other than 3 primary care visits per year before the plan's deductible is met. The monthly premium amount for catastrophic plans are lower than for other QHPs. The out-of-pocket costs for deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance are usually higher on catastrophic plans. To qualify for a catastrophic plan, you must be under 30 years old OR get a "hardship exemption" because the Marketplace determined that you’re unable to afford health coverage.

For households who have a mix of under 30 year olds and above 30 year olds, the exemption certificates are required only for the 30 or above year olds to enable catastrophic plans for the entire household. All the 30 or above year olds should have valid certificate numbers for catastrophic plan exemptions to shop and enroll into catastrophic plans Exemptions are provided for a plan coverage year. Exemptions do not overlap across years. Once an exemption is provided, it is valid until the end of the coverage year. An exemption provided on October 7 th 2014 expires December 31 st 2014 If the consumer wants an exemption to allow Catastrophic Plans for the next plan coverage year, he/she must reapply for exemptions during the next coverage year’s shopping process If a non-Catastrophic Plan was purchased and the consumer wishes to qualify for Catastrophic Plans outside Open Enrollment, the consumer must report a Special Enrollment-qualifying event and qualify for exemptions.
