No Health Insurance?
Southcoast Can Help

Do you need to sign up for Massachusetts’ new Commonwealth Care Health Insurance Plan but don’t know where to start? Southcoast will help connect you to the region’s best health care. If you live in Massachusetts and don’t have health insurance, Commonwealth Care can cover most of your health needs — and your family’s — at little or no cost.

You Get to Choose

You can choose a health plan that covers:

• Doctor visits.
• Emergency Room visits.
• Prescription drugs.
• Hospital care.
• Vision services.
• Mental health and substance abuse services.

Southcoast only accepts BMC HealthNet and Neighborhood Health Plan, the plans that offer you the most choice and access to the region’s largest and most advanced health care system.
