Modern Healthcare: The CMS says some Medicare beneficiaries are receiving tax credits to purchase insurance through the Affordable Care Act marketplace. The agency is warning them to cancel their exchange coverage immediately and pay back the credit they've received. The majority of individuals with Medicare coverage are considered to have minimum essential coverage as outlined in the Affordable Care Act and as a result are not eligible for subsidies to pay for a marketplace plan.
