Summary
Governor Phil Scott just signed an executive order that could reshape Vermont’s health insurance landscape—allowing premiums to be tied to age, a move that could slash costs for younger, healthier residents while potentially raising them for older ones. This reverses Vermont’s long-standing ban on age-based pricing, which the governor says will help small businesses and young people access more affordable coverage. The plan also opens the door to tobacco-use adjustments and revived small business insurance pools—but critics warn it could widen cost gaps and destabilize the market, contradicting the governor’s promise of equitable savings.
