As of July 1, 2022, adults without children who meet eligibility requirements can now enroll in the Covered CT program. Launched in July 2021, this program provides health insurance at no cost to more than 800 parents and caretaker relatives in Connecticut. Covered CT pays premiums as well as other cost-sharing amounts like deductibles, co-pays, co-insurance, and maximum out-of-pocket expenses. The program has also been expanded to offer dental coverage and non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) benefits.
To qualify, Connecticut residents must have a household income up to and including 175% of the federal poverty level and not qualify for HUSKY Health/Medicaid because of income; be eligible for financial help, including advance premium tax credit and cost-sharing reductions; and use 100% of the financial help available to them. They must also be enrolled in a silver-level health insurance plan.
