Almost half of CT exchange members will pay full price

Almost half of CT residents buying coverage in the new CT Health Insurance Exchange will not get premium subsidies – they will pay the full cost of coverage, including the exchanges’s administrative costs. Small businesses are expected to make up between 14% and 22% of total exchange enrollment. At least 60% of CT’s newly insured under national health reform will be coming into our Medicaid program. Even with reform, up to 197,000 CT residents will still lack coverage. For more, go to CT Health Reform by the Numbers.
