The IRS releases and updates the list of State-Qualified Health Plans for New York to help qualified individuals and their families get their Health Coverage Tax Credit. The list provides information to help you decide which one is most appropriate for you and your family. The list is divided in two, each serving a different purpose.
Use this list if you are interested in learning more about the state-qualified health plan options currently available in your state and how to enroll for future coverage. Clicking this link will take you directly to the IRS website where you will find the complete list of available HCTC-qualified health plans.
This list is continually updated as new state-qualified health plans become available. When you call one of these current plans, ask for information about HCTC state-qualified products (they may also be known as TAA health plans).
Use this list if you intend to claim the yearly HCTC on your 2009 federal tax return, to verify that you were enrolled in one of the specific state-qualified health plan products available last year on or after the effective date listed. Clicking this link will take you directly to the IRS website where you will find the complete list of available HCTC-qualified health plans.
This list is updated once per year, most recently as of December 31, 2009. If you were not enrolled in one of these products, your plan does not qualify as a state-qualified health plan and you may not be able to claim the yearly HCTC unless you have another type of qualified health insurance.
Note: The links to health plans listed on these pages will take you to health plan websites for general information. The information listed there may not be specifically related to the HCTC.
