Massachusetts Health Connector*
About
The Massachusetts Health Connector is an independent state agency created to carry out key parts of the state’s 2006 health care reform, and it later served as one of the models for the exchanges established under the federal Affordable Care Act. Its core role is to act as an intermediary that helps people obtain health coverage, offering a marketplace where plans from leading insurance carriers can be compared side by side.
Through Health Connector for Business, small employers and their brokers can shop more than 50 health and dental plans, preview options, get quotes and enroll employees through new online tools built for employers, brokers and employees alike. Options are available for sole proprietors and owner-only groups. The ConnectWell wellness program lets eligible employers earn a rebate on their premium contributions when enough employees complete qualifying wellness activities.
