I received a 1095 B form not a 1099 HC

[ModestaL]

If you have a 1095-B, a form titled Health Coverage, the IRS does NOT need any details from this form. You can keep any 1095-B forms you get from your health insurance company or the government agency that sponsors your plan for your records.

If you haven't received your 1099-HC by January 31, 2018, you may want to contact the insurance company. If you do not expect to receive a 1099-HC (and don't have government-subsidized insurance, such as Medicare, MassHealth, or Tricare), complete the Health Insurance interview by answering that you did not receive a 1099-HC. Enter the insurance company name and your subscriber number, but leave the FID blank. You may see an error during the state review, which you can ignore. TurboTax may not allow you to e-file, in which case you'll need to print and mail your MA tax return.

NOTE: The Form 1095-B is a Federal form, while the Form 1099-HC is a Massachusetts form, It serves as proof of Health insurance coverage for MA adult residents. They both provide information about your Heath Coverage. It's your responsibility to determine whether your insurance meets MCC requirements.

I received a 1095B not 1099

You do not post anything to your Federal Taxes  from the 1095-B.

This is a Federal form.

It is proof that you had minimum coverage during the year.  You may have to confirm that with your state.

It should be kept with your other tax document in the event the question arrases in the future.

The 1099-HC is a Massachusetts health form that is also proof of Health Insurance Coverage.

It from your insurance company, and it provides proof of health insurance coverage for Massachusetts residents.  

If you wish to download a copy of the 1099-HC, 

• You can sign into your medical insurance carrier’s online account,
• Or contact their member services at the number on your ID card.

Also, retain this form with your tax documents.
