No, they are not the same.  Form 1099's report various types of income.   A 1095-C is a form about health coverage.   It reports to the IRS the type of health coverage a person had, dependents covered by their insurance, and how many months one had coverage for in 2016.

You can a see what one looks like here:

If you receive one, keep it for your records.  TurboTax will ask you questions about your healthcare coverage situation as you go through the healthcare interview.
