Healthcare.gov: Enroll by Sunday! Pay premiums, not penalties.

The following is from an e-bulletin from USA.gov.

Healthcare.gov: Enroll by Sunday! Pay premiums, not penalties.

Sunday is the last day to enroll in a health insurance plan for 2015. If you miss that deadline, you may not be able to get coverage until 2016. And while you may not get sick in 2015, if you don't have health insurance, you will pay ahefty penalty when you file your federal income tax return next year. 

While the penalty is a minimum of only $95 per adult without coverage in 2014, that fee rises to a minimum of $325 per adult without coverage in 2015, and to $695 per adult in 2016. 

Don’t miss out on preventive care that can keep you healthy. Put your dollars towards premiums, not penalties. Calculate your estimated monthly 2015 premium tax credit and coverage options in minutes.
