It's not a penalty, it is the Individual Shared Responsibility Payment.

Rumor has it that it is fairly easy to get a waiver, but the feds aren't exactly going out of their way to get that info out there.

And as long as you ensure you never have a refund coming due, they won't be able to enforce the penalty.

My problem is that I will have a refund coming for only working 4.5 months this year - otherwise I'd flip .GOV the bird and not bother getting any insurance.

Next year I'll see how much of the bill I can get subsidized. Otherwise I will flip .GOV the bird.

Aetna CEO Mark Bertolini says ObamaCare as designed can never work without major government subsidies of insurers. Given that, Aetna is looking at getting out of the market.

Quote:
Tuesday’s announcement by health insurer Aetna that it had halted plans to expand its offerings on Obamacare exchanges and may instead reduce or eliminate its participation entirely, caused a shockwave among health-policy experts. The insurer that heretofore had acted as one of Obamacare’s biggest cheerleaders has now admitted that the law will not work without a massive new infusion of taxpayer cash.



In calling for the government to subsidize risk adjustment, Bertolini believes that for the foreseeable future insurers will continue to face a risk pool sicker than in the average employer plan. In other words, the exchanges won’t work as currently constituted, because healthy people are staying away from Obamacare plans in droves. Aetna’s proposed “solution,” as expected, is for the taxpayer to pick up the tab.
