How to save on Vermont health insurance

The biggest lever on your Vermont premium is the ACA premium tax credit. It caps what you pay for a benchmark silver plan at a percentage of your income — the lower your income, the larger the credit — and the government pays the rest directly to your insurer.

Because Vermont expanded Medicaid, the lowest earners may qualify for free or low-cost Medicaid, while those above that level shop subsidized Marketplace plans through Vermont Health Connect.

One important change for 2026: the enhanced pandemic-era subsidies have expired unless renewed, so the “400% cliff” may return for higher earners. That makes comparing plans with a licensed Vermont agent more valuable than ever. Prefer to read up first? Browse our insurance guides.
