What is Line 15 in Form 1095-C?

Line 15 in Form 1095-C is used to report the amount of the employee's required contribution, which is the lowest-cost self-only Minimum Essential Coverage (MEC) providing minimum value (MV) offered to that employee.

Note: Line 15 should only be populated if line 14 has a code of 1B, 1C, 1D, 1E, 1J, 1K, 1L, 1M, 1N, 1O, 1P, or 1Q on line 14. If one of these codes is listed in the “All 12 Months” column on line 14, there should also be a line 15 entry for all 12 months. If line 14 does not have one of these codes for any given month(s), line 15 should be left blank for that month.
