Vermont Health Connect Navigators and officials are participating in and hosting upcoming events to talk to Vermonters about new health coverage options. Vermont Health Connect offers a new way for Vermonters to find a health plan that fits their needs and budget. Vermonters can compare plans side-by-side, determine if they are eligible for public plans and, for many, access financial help to lower the cost of their plans.
