The math for one household

The 45-year-old earning $35,000, step by step:

The 2026 poverty guideline for one person, used for 2027 coverage, is $15,960. $35,000 is 219% of it.
At 219%, the 2027 IRS table expects 7.51% of income toward the benchmark plan: $219 a month.
The benchmark silver plan in Lake County costs a 45-year-old $749 a month at 2026 prices.
The credit is the difference: $749 minus $219, or $530 a month.
Applied to the cheapest bronze plan, it leaves $28; to the cheapest gold, $182.

The 400% line matters most at 60. A 60-year-old earning $70,000 is $6,160 over the $63,840 limit and gets no credit. Under the line, the credit here would be worth about $10,363 a year.

If your income is low

Florida has not expanded Medicaid. Adults without children under 100% of the poverty line usually get neither Medicaid nor a credit. Children qualify for CHIP at higher incomes. Full limits are on the Florida page.
