That is not true. FB offers numerous plans. Some are obamacare compliant and some are not. The obamacare compliant plans are the same price whether you buy them through the marketplace or not. Buying them via the marketplace may allow for a subside, which can be applied each month or you can opt for no subside each month and receive the total subside when you do your taxes the next year. Plenty of people pay the full price because they don't qualify for a subside. You can probably guess how I know this.
