If my mom is loyal to her word..
Wed, 05/31/2017 - 06:09I am 21 years old and there has been some family drama the past year. A week ago, my mom has threatened to drop the health insurance thatI have for the third time in the past six months. As a college student that makes about $500 every month, I can't affford the combination of rent and Kaiser Permanente. So, if my mom ever decides to stick to her word and drop me from her health insurance plan, what do I do? Is ObamaCare my only choice? (if I even qualify for that)

It i smy understanding that if you are a college student, your parents can keep you in their insurance until you are 26 IF you continue to be a full time student. I may be wrong though about the age, but when Obama did the obama care, he also changed the rules for maintaining adult children in parent's insurance.
Colleges do have a some sort of low cost health care through the college, ask about.
You can also ask about Cobra while you research.

It's time to find out what you qualify for, nothing clarifies issues better than facts but I don't think this is a reliable place nor do I know who is best to ask. If your state expanded Medicaid, you might be in a better position. You don't make enough to qualify for ACA subsidies, those cover incomes above some point - Medicaid expansion was expected to cover those at the low end.
