Show Notes
A new study warns of significant financial repercussions if Connecticut expands its Partnership Plan to private employers. The report, backed by a lobbying group, projects a massive loss in state revenue from insurance taxes and fees, ranging from $44.5 million to $1.13 billion. The study also suggests a potential explosion in public plan enrollment, squeezing out private employer coverage and impacting healthcare providers and access. Governor Ned Lamont is pushing his own Connecticut Option, focusing on value-based care, while a bill to study the feasibility of his plan is pending.
