Take Action: Tell your legislators to support Association Health Plans!

The Connecticut state legislature has an opportunity this session to ease one of the biggest burdens facing small businesses today – the unaffordable cost of healthcare. The House is about to vote on a proposal that would provide access to more affordable, high-quality coverage options. Now is the time to speak up and show your support.

>>>>> TAKE ACTION TODAY! <<<<<The proposal, An Act Concerning Association Health Plans, offers a practical, market-based solution. This legislation would allow small businesses to join together through trade associations, chambers of commerce, and other qualifying groups to purchase health insurance as a larger pool. These plans would:

  • Be subject to oversight by the Connecticut Insurance Department
  • Cover essential health benefits
  • Prohibit exclusions for preexisting conditions
  • Maintain consumer protections, including preventive care coverage
