Here is a link to a Marketplace tool with more information, including how to apply for an exemption. If you qualify for a health coverage exemption, you may have all or part of the penalty waived. Turbo tax will walk you through questions about possible exemptions and ask if you have applied for one, when you click on Health Insurance, at the top.
