康涅狄格州医保开放注册进行中：州长提醒居民比较2027年计划与补助
康涅狄格州州长 Ned Lamont 与州保险专员 Joshua Hershman 11月5日在州府 Hartford 提醒居民，随着通过州官方医保市场 Access Health CT 的健康保险开放注册正在进行，居民应比较自己的医保选项，并了解可用于抵消2027年保费成本的财政补助。
本年度开放注册于10月23日开始、持续至2027年1月15日。在此期间，康涅狄格州居民可以首次投保、续保现有计划，或比较选项并为来年作出变更。Access Health CT 是居民唯一可以获得财政补助以降低保费的市场，约80%的该市场客户获得某种形式的财政补助。
可用补助包括联邦的预付保费税收抵免（APTC），以及康涅狄格州的临时保费援助计划——该计划帮助符合条件的居民弥补联邦增强型保费税收抵免到期造成的缺口，州政府将在2027年继续提供这项援助。州政府还通过 CHOICE/ICHRA 计划为通过个人覆盖健康报销安排（ICHRA）提供医保的雇主提供税收激励，并为幼儿教育工作者与持牌托儿机构员工提供定向保费援助。
Lamont 表示：「医疗可负担性是首要任务，我们正以行动支持家庭——保护他们免受联邦补助中断的影响、为通过新 CHOICE/ICHRA 计划提供医保的小企业创造税收激励，并为幼儿教育工作者提供直接财政援助。这些都是帮助康涅狄格州居民与雇主应对不断上涨的医疗成本的务实方案。」

Connecticut Open Enrollment Underway: Governor Urges Residents to Review 2027 Health Coverage Options
Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont and Insurance Commissioner Joshua Hershman on November 5 in Hartford encouraged residents to review their health insurance coverage options and explore financial assistance to offset 2027 coverage costs, as open enrollment through Access Health CT, the state's official health insurance marketplace, is now underway.
Open enrollment began on October 23, 2026, and continues through January 15, 2027. During this period, Connecticut residents can enroll in coverage for the first time, renew their current plans, or compare options and make changes for the coming year. Access Health CT is the only place residents can qualify for financial assistance through the marketplace, and approximately 80 percent of its customers receive some form of financial assistance.
Available assistance includes federal Advance Premium Tax Credits (APTCs), which lower monthly premiums, and Connecticut's Temporary Premium Assistance program, which helps eligible residents offset the loss of enhanced federal premium tax credits; the state is continuing this assistance for eligible residents in 2027. The state also supports small businesses through its CHOICE/ICHRA program, which provides tax incentives to employers offering coverage through Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangements, and provides targeted assistance to help early childhood educators afford health coverage.
"Health care affordability is a top priority, and we're backing that up with action to protect families from the loss of federal subsidies, create tax incentives for small businesses to offer coverage through our new CHOICE/ICHRA program, and provide direct financial assistance to early childhood educators," Governor Lamont said. "These are practical solutions that help Connecticut residents and employers manage rising health care costs."
