Over 330,000 Connecticut children, parents, and pregnant women depend on the HUSKY Program for access to preventive care and treatment. To help ensure that tax dollars for this essential program were being spent wisely and to help meet federal accountability standards, the Connecticut General Assembly has appropriated funds for independent performance monitoring since 1995. By maintaining independent performance monitoring in the HUSKY program, Connecticut can ensure accountability for federal and state dollars and for program changes, as well as promote data sharing and policy development to improve public health. This accountability is particularly important during this time of tremendous change in the administration of the HUSKY Program. (March 2008)
