Connecticut children and their parents or a relative caregiver; and pregnant women may be eligible for HUSKY A (also known as Medicaid), depending on family income. 

 

Uninsured children under age 19 in higher-income households may be eligible for HUSKY B (also known as the Children’s Health Insurance Program).  Depending on specific income level, family cost-sharing applies.

 

There is one convenient application for both HUSKY A and B.

 

The first step toward qualifying is to fill out the HUSKY Application and send it in (Versión en Español).  There is no cost or obligation when you apply.  HUSKY program staff will then contact you about the next steps.

 

[Note:  When looking at the HUSKY family income guidelines, please keep in mind that we may not count some of your income and may also deduct certain expenses. The best thing to do is apply and let us determine your family’s eligibility.]
