The 'glitch' is gone. Working Ventura County families who previously couldn't get health insurance subsidies can now receive the aid to shrink their premiums. The changes in Covered California, the state insurance marketplace now accepting coverage enrollments for 2023, impact spouses and children of employees insured through work. In the past, family members were blocked out of the program's subsidies no matter how high premiums were in employer coverage. Affordability calculations were based on individual plans, not family coverage.
