Mass-Care

Mass-Care’s mission is to establish a single payer health care system in Massachusetts so that all residents of the Commonwealth will have access to comprehensive, quality, affordable and equitable health care because it is basic to life and human dignity. Mass-Care was launched in 1995 as a coalition of Massachusetts organizations sharing a deep concern about the inequities of our health care system. Our organization’s strategic mission is premised on the belief that only a large-scale grassroots movement will be able to win reform that guarantees universal single payer health care.


Commonwealth Care Alliance. 
We are a not-for-profit care delivery system committed to integrating your health care and related social support services.

Commonwealth Connector 

On Oct. 1 the Connector began enrolling people at or below the federal poverty line into the Commonwealth Care Health Insurance Program (Commonwealth Care). Eligibility determinations and enrollment in Commonwealth Care health plans have exceeded the ambitious targets set for the program.

As of December 26th over 47,000 people have already been determined eligible for Commonwealth Care, and 28,875 of those people have enrolled into one of the Commonwealth Care health plans. In January 2007 Commonwealth Care will expand to cover people who are up to 300% of the federal poverty level.

Continue to check this site for updates on our enrollment progress. If you think you may be eligible for Commonwealth Care, call the Commonwealth Care customer service center toll-free at 1-877-MA-ENROLL (1-877-623-6765).
