MHBE works with Maryland Department of Health, Maryland Insurance Administration, Department of Human Services and stakeholders statewide.

Maryland Health Connection had a remarkable year in 2025 with nearly a quarter-million Marylanders enrolled in the marketplace, the seventh consecutive year of enrollment increases.

More people new to the marketplace enrolled and more young adults than ever – enrollments by young adults aged 18-37 grew by 21 percent. Communities of color that have historically disproportionately lacked health coverage also saw enrollments grow by 25 percent in 2025.
