Who We Are and What We Do
Community Health Network of Connecticut, Inc. ® (CHNCT) is the not-for-profit managed care organization that serves as the medical Administrative Services Organization (ASO) for the HUSKY Health program. In partnership with the State of Connecticut, CHNCT helps nearly one million members access care, understand their benefits, and connect with resources that support their health and quality of life.
CHNCT’s role extends beyond administration. By combining data-driven strategies with community engagement, CHNCT works to address the social determinants of health that shape outcomes for HUSKY Health members. Through initiatives such as Community Engagement HUBs, members can meet with Community Health Workers (CHWs) in trusted neighborhood spaces for help connecting to resources such as food, housing, childcare, employment, and more. Many CHWs live in the same communities as the members they serve, bringing cultural and linguistic understanding to every interaction. They provide one-on-one support to help members find a primary care provider, schedule appointments, learn about their HUSKY Health benefits, and adopt healthier lifestyles. This personal connection ensures members can access services and feel supported while navigating the healthcare system.
CHNCT also collaborates with community partners, such as Connecticut Foodshare and Workforce Alliance, to expand the network of resources available to members. Participation in health fairs, community meetings, and educational workshops helps to strengthen community ties and improve health equity across the state.
