Illustrative Oregon estimate, not an eligibility determination. The OHP/OHP Bridge bands are simplified adult coverage bands; age, immigration status, pregnancy, children, disability, employer coverage, and other rules can change eligibility. For 2026 Marketplace applications, Oregon generally uses the prior year’s poverty guidelines. Actual credits use the local benchmark premium and tax-household MAGI.
