   New stimulus benefit offers free health insurance through the end of this year

   The benefit's zero-premium health care plans just became available, as of July 1, and there are no income limits to qualify. But you must meet one big eligibility requirement.
   
   If you've gotten or have been approved for unemployment benefits during 2021, you qualify to receive free health coverage for the remainder of the year via HealthCare.gov. That's the marketplace established under the Affordable Care Act — Obamacare.
   
   Middle-of-the-pack "silver" plans (not high-end, but not low-end either) with $0 premiums made their debut on Thursday as part of the program. The health plans, which are offered by private insurers, also come with low or even no copayments or deductibles.

      @geniusmusing I will take a look. It would be nice to have medical coverage again.
