Reviewed by Russell Noga, Licensed Medicare Insurance Broker (all 50 states) — Last updated October 19, 2026

Connecticut’s Medicare Advantage market looks different for 2027. ConnectiCare, a longtime local Medicare Advantage carrier, has no plans in CMS’s 2027 data, and Devoted Health now sells PPO plans in four Connecticut counties. If you’re in a ConnectiCare plan, you’ll need to choose new coverage for January.

For 2027, CMS’s plan data lists 48 individual Medicare Advantage plans from 6 companies across all 8 Connecticut counties. Annual Enrollment runs October 15 to December 7, 2026, for coverage that starts January 1, 2027.
