So apparently there is a deadline to find a healthcare plan by March 31. They are either forcing you to find somewhere to pay $150/mth or more or take a fine.

What does a single college student who is supported by their parents and scholarships do if they aren't covered under their parents healthcare plan?

well, you are covered on your parents by law if you are under 24 or something like that.
if this somehow doesnt apply to you, the fine is waived if you meet certain financial criteria.

You covered under your parents plan until you are 26 actually.

You are good. Do nothing. You will not become accountable to The State Health Ministry for a few more years. By then you should be well-employed, prosperous and able to afford your State-mandated healthcare with ease.

In other words, slowly prepare your anus.

I'm fine I'm covered by my parents. I'm just talking hypothetically.
Would children under 26 be covered by their parents Medicare or Medicaid plan?

Sorry if I know little about this and sound like an idiot.

The main takeaway is that Obama loves you and wants you to be happy.

Do nothing. There's an old saying: you can't get blood out of turnip.....

You have to be added/on the parents' plan, and somebody has to pay for it. And it is up to the 26th birthday.

Nope. You CAN be covered under your parent's plan up to age 26. Your parents don't HAVE to do this. The insurance company simply has to allow it if the parents want it

The individual mandate has been pushed back a year or two now and will likely be pushed back again at least until Obama's out of office.
