Reply to comment by PolkaD0tMom in Can't Access Plans on Health Connector by Long_Ad_5182

Why can't I enroll in a plan? I never got information on plan renewal (the packets they send out each year). Do I have to worry about losing health coverage between now and Jan 1?

To elaborate, my income shot up a lot so I won't be eligible for the subsidized Masshealth plan I'm on.

You still qualify for Masshealth. Even if you make $100/hr. You can't enroll in a Health Connector plan when you qualify for Masshealth.

Do you know when this got extended until? I have clients that are confused and I didn’t happen to catch an end date.

There's no end date yet.

Can they legally bill me for services during the coverage date in the future? E.g. they repeal the protection of coverage in a few months, see I've been making more, and then back charge or back bill me for services during 2022 that we're initially covered by my insurance?

No, that would defeat the purpose of the protection
