Hi
Turbo tax is asking this question regarding insurance. we are living in Massachusetts. I had MassHealth for 2018. Do I have to select Yes or No to this question?
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
The current TurboTax programs are only for tax year 2019, so any questions asked concerning health insurance will be for 2019.
On a federal tax return there is no requirement for having health insurance. Unless you received health insurance through one of the state Marketplace Exchanges and received a Form 1095-A. Then the Form 1095-A has to be entered on the federal return.
To enter your Form 1095-A -
Or enter 1095-a in the Search box located in the upper right of the program screen. Click on Jump to 1095-a
Yes But I am using a TurboTax desktop program for 2018.

Then answer yes to the question for having health insurance in 2018 since you had MassHealth.
sorry, the image did not properly appear in the first comment. this is the actual question.
Thank you for the screenshot. Then in this case the answer should be NO since MassHealth is the state Medicaid program and would not be a Marketplace plan.
The answer is YES since MassHealth is the same as Mass Health Connector.
MassHealth is Medicaid for MA - https://www.mass.gov/topics/masshealth
Mass Health Connector is MA Marketplace plan - https://mahealthconnector.optum.com/individual/
No.
Let me be a little more specific -
If you had MassHealth it is Medicaid for MA - https://www.mass.gov/topics/masshealth
Answer NO
If you had Mass Health Connector it is a Marketplace plan - https://mahealthconnector.optum.com/individual/
Answer YES
