Show Notes

Connecticut lawmakers aim to triple HUSKY C Medicaid asset limits for seniors and disabled individuals, raising them from $1,600 to $5,000 for singles and $2,400 to $7,500 for couples. This change, set to take effect in 2027, is a response to advocates concerns about the current strict limits that make it difficult for people to qualify and maintain coverage. The Human Services Committee is also considering a bill to gradually eliminate limits by 2031, but both plans face opposition from the Department of Social Services due to funding concerns.
