Not much on their website now, but it looks like they're going to put the details/plans up on October 1st.

I've got it bookmarked. I've been without health insurance for a few years now. According to the calculator on the State of CT site, it looks like with the subsidy, the premium could cost me less than $50 a month (and I'm over 50!!). Granted, that's just a premium and no actual healthcare, but that's better than I've had for a while.
