Federal Poverty Level (FPL) guidelines are issued each year by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) based on information gathered by the Census Bureau. The Bureau uses that data to calculate the total cost of essential resources used by an average person in a year. FPLs are used to determine eligibility for certain programs and benefits, including savings on Marketplace Health Insurance, Medicaid, and CHIP coverage, as well as a basis for FQHC sliding fee scales. The 2025 guidelines establish $32,150 as the FPL for a family of four, a 2.9% increase from the previous FPL. View the full HHS chart.
