Review basic Insurance terms like:

AHCCCS / KIDSCARE / Marketplace

Who may be eligible for AHCCCS/KIDSCARE or the Marketplace?

If you are uninsured or buy your own coverage, you can enroll from October 1 to March 31, 2014. Coverage will not begin before January 1, 2014. If your income is in the A or B area, you may be eligible for AHCCCS (Medicaid). If you fall in the C area you may eligible for Insurance Marketplace and financial assistance to help pay your premiums. The D area represents households that may be eligible for the Marketplace but their income may be too high to receive financial assistance. AHCCCS does not have an open enrollment; you can sign up any time. Expanded AHCCCS coverage begins on January 1, 2014 and enrollment begins October 1, 2013.

If your income exceeds the KidsCare guideline you are eligible for the Marketplace Health Insurance.
