$75 Million loan through the Affordable Care Act will allow creation of affordable, patient-governed non-profit health care options

MERIDEN – Democratic Congressional Candidate and Speaker of the Connecticut House of Representatives Chris Donovan today released the following statement congratulating HealthyCT and the Connecticut State Medical Society (CSMS) and the CSMS-IPA on their CO-OP award:

“I am excited to congratulate HealthyCT on receiving the federal funding needed to start up a consumer-directed health insurance company through the Affordable Care Act’s non-profit Consumer Operated and Oriented Plan (CO-OP) program. There are only 14 of these loans in the country right now, so once again, Connecticut is on the cutting edge of working to provide health care coverage to every family. These funds will allow HealthyCT to launch, bringing quality, affordable health care to more of the hard-working families of Connecticut, and bringing us one step closer to ensuring that every man, woman, and child is entitled to quality health care as a right. Congratulations!”
