Looking Beyond the Marketplace?

  • Available year-round

  • Can be customized for your needs
  • Available to self-employed individuals & gig workers

Need Temporary Coverage?

Short-term health plans can help if you’re between jobs, recently moved, or missed Open Enrollment. These plans provide basic protection for unexpected medical expenses, but they’re not long-term solutions. We’ll help you understand the pros and cons.

  • Immediate coverage start options
  • Ideal for gap periods between major plans
  • Limited in coverage (may not cover pre-existing conditions)
  • Can be canceled anytime
  • Not compliant with ACA standards

Common Health Insurance Questions

You shouldn’t need a translator to understand your health insurance. Here are a few of the questions we hear most often — and how we help clients get clear answers.

  • Can you help me enroll in Access Health CT?

    Yes. We’re licensed to assist with enrollment through Connecticut’s official health insurance marketplace, including checking for subsidies and filing documentation.

  • What’s the difference between ACA plans and private health insurance?

    ACA plans are purchased through the exchange and come with financial assistance if you qualify. Private plans are outside the marketplace and typically offer more flexibility but no subsidies.

  • Are there penalties for not having health insurance in Connecticut?

    No, Connecticut does not currently have a penalty for being uninsured, but going without coverage leaves you at risk for unexpected medical costs.

  • Can I switch plans mid-year?

    You can only change plans during a Special Enrollment Period, like if you move, lose coverage, or experience another qualifying event.

  • What if I have pre-existing conditions?

    ACA-compliant plans must cover all pre-existing conditions. Short-term plans, however, may not.
