Does “ACA health insurance” classification used here include everyone who buys insurance on their own who are not employed by a large-enough company or on Medicare/medicaid?

The job-based insurance system in USA is so bogus.

Only the plans you buy through the state marketplaces.

I've never dealt with it before personally, are there other places you can buy plans as an individual? How do the prices compare?

Prices are rough these days, because Republicans later removed the individual mandate. The system was never gonna survive that; it changes the economics entirely.
