The OHP expansion is providing for people earning incomes at the lower end of the Federal Poverty Level, and a new program called the Cover Oregon was created to help people with incomes between 139 percent and 400 percent of the poverty level.
Under this program a family of four earning as much as $94,200 annually or a single person earning as much as $45,960 annually will qualify for subsidies designed to help them pay insurance premiums. These subsidies will come in the form of tax credits and, for some lower-income earners, lower deductibles and co-payments.

However, if insurance costs 8 percent or more of your income, it is considered unaffordable and you don’t have to pay a penalty.
