This brief is designed to provide final data and analysis on supports for state residents to access and maintain their coverage through the duration of the national COVID-19 crisis. The Health Connector established a Special Enrollment Period (SEP) for Massachusetts residents without health insurance coverage or those with coverage that may have become unaffordable. Through the COVID-19 SEP, uninsured residents had a new opportunity to enroll in quality individual/family coverage to access necessary COVID-19 services and protect themselves and their families from health and financial risk.
