Yeah, my understanding is that it's really not for people who are capable of getting any kind of medical insurance on their own. It's for those who are completely unable to get a premium of any kind, and are stuck with literally tens of thousands of dollars a year in out-of-pocket medical costs. 300-400% of your premium is still quite possibly less than they're currently paying in medical bills, so it's a better deal for them.
