We understand that getting or understanding health insurance can feel hard. So we have trained people in your community that can help you. The are called Assisters. They are professionals who are trained and certified by Department of Vermont Health Access to help Vermonters understand and enroll in health coverage in-person or virtually through Vermont Health Connect or Green Mountain Care. They can answer questions, walk you through an application, and if you allow it, communicate directly with Vermont Health Connect on your behalf.
The organizations on the list below have certified Assisters on staff. They assist Vermonters who are existing patients or clients. Please call the organization ahead of your visit to see if they are accepting new clients and to schedule an appointment.
