You can get an exemption so that you won’t have to pay a penalty for not having qualifying health insurance.

 

Some exemptions require an exemption application through Covered California. Other exemptions do not require an application: Instead, you can claim them when you file your state tax return.

 

For more information on how to apply for exemption, please check: Covered California
