Meridian Health Plan of Michigan, Inc. is a Medicaid plan in Michigan. It counts as health insurance but it is NOT a Healthcare.gov or MarketPlace plan or ObamaCare.      

• Answer no, this is not an ObamaCare (1095-A), MarketPlace, Healthcare.gov, etc., plan. 
• You may have received form 1095-B or 1095-C, not 1095-A. The IRS doesn't need any details from your 1095-B or 1095-C form. This form is for your records only.
• It gets confusing because Medicaid is a government sponsored plan but it is not "ObamaCare".
