Connecticut: Access Health CT enrolls 117.5K during Open Enrollment; up 18% y/y so far

Via Access Health CT's News/Press Releases page:

Stats as of December 8, 2023

Qualified Health Plans (QHP):

• QHP Enrollment In 2023 Coverage: 117,516
• 2024 OE Acquisition Summary: 18,531

Medicaid:

• Completed applications/redeterminations processed through the integrated eligibility system: 37,734

It's my understanding that "Acquisition Summary" refers to CT residents who are brand-new enrollees (never enrolled via the exchange before).

The 117.5K figure includes auto-renewals being piled on top of the new/active renewal tally.

By comparison, last year Access Health CT reported enrolling 101,793 people through December 15th (one extra day since Nov. 1st fell on a Tuesday last year); this also included auto-renewals:

• 2023: 101,793 in 45 days (2,262/day)
• 2024: 117,516 in 44 days (2,671/day)

In other words, Connect's ACA exchange has enrolled 18% more people per day so far.

Access Health CT's final tally at the end of Open Enrollment last year was 108,132, so they're already 8.7% ahead of that.
