Rhode Island expanded Medicaid and operates HealthSource RI, a state-based ACA marketplace. RIte Care (Medicaid) covers 380,000+ residents, nearly 36% of the population. The ACA marketplace covers 40,000+ Rhode Islanders. Medicare covers 240,000+ residents. Rhode Island's small size means most residents can access Providence-area specialists regardless of plan.
Rhode Island residents have access to health coverage through multiple channels: the ACA Marketplace (healthcare.gov), off-marketplace private plans from carriers like Blue Cross, UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, and Cigna, Medicaid for qualifying low-income individuals, and employer-sponsored group plans.
