The Health Insurance Coverage anchor calculator is on the post-launch backlog (Byron-confirmed scope expansion: 2–5 additional calcs after Days 1–5). When that tool ships, this methodology page will cover ACA marketplace plan structure (metal tiers, AV, MOOP), employer-sponsored vs marketplace, HSA-eligible plans, and the subsidy thresholds under IRC §36B.
Sources we'll cite
- Healthcare.gov — federal marketplace
- HHS / CMS — ACA plan-design rules and AV calculator
- IRC §36B — Premium Tax Credit eligibility and computation
- IRS Publication 969 — HSAs, Archer MSAs, and Other Tax-Favored Health Plans
- State Departments of Insurance — state-based marketplace overlays
