Hassle or not has to do with how much it is worth to you to save money. I saved about $12K that year on ACA.You know what? I just thought of something and that is since we will be moving out of state, getting the ACA coverage in NY- since it has to go through the NYS website- would not be a good idea. I would then have to switch again mid year or even sooner. His company plan is good everywhere, though it is a high deductible/high premium.
(Of course, my husband will also have to do so with his medicare supplement, unless maybe the company he gets the supplement with will also be in NH.)
Changing coverage to a different state is trivial. It is called change of life event. If you start and continue with ACA, you just go to NH version of ACA. Same thing with private insurance.
