The passage Medicaid Expansion under the New Hampshire Health Protection Plan (NHHPP) in 2014 secured health insurance coverage for more than 45,000 Granite State residents. In January 2019, the Granite Advantage Health Care Program replaced NHHPP and continues to provide health insurance coverage for more than 45,000 New Hampshire residents at little or no cost through thestate’s Medicaid Management Program (MCM) plans. Since its inception in 2014, Medicaid Expansion in New Hampshire has successfully reduced the number of uninsured patients seeking care in emergency rooms, reduced the amount of uncompensated care provided by hospitals to those without insurance, and reduced the cost shift to those with insurance.

What’s a Health Insurance Marketplace? Why do I need health insurance?
The new health care law sets up a Health Insurance Marketplace in each state, which is your one-stop shopping destination for health insurance. It works in the same way you would shop for any other important item in your life: You look at all the available options in your area, compare each plan’s features and prices side-by-side, then choose the one that fits your needs and your budget.
