# The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA)

The Inflation Reduction Act Means More Access to Affordable Coverage in CTThe Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) makes health insurance coverage more affordable by greatly reducing monthly payments (premiums) for many people who enroll through Access Health CT. And it provides financial help for people with somewhat higher incomes who can face high premiums. More people qualify for help paying for health coverage, even those who weren't eligible in the past.Financial help is only available through Access Health CT, and this year it will remain significantly greater for most Connecticut residents. For those already enrolled in health insurance through Access Health CT, some people will continue to receive federal financial help (known as premium tax credits) to reduce their portion of monthly premiums.
