Governor Maggie Hassan issued the following statement on the two-year anniversary of quality, affordable health coverage beginning under the bipartisan New Hampshire Health Protection Program:

"Two years since health coverage began, the bipartisan New Hampshire Health Protection Program is boosting our economy, strengthening the health and financial security of our people and businesses and helping combat the heroin and opioid crisis. Today, nearly 50,000 hard-working Granite Staters have the security and peace of mind that comes with quality, affordable health insurance, and thousands have accessed substance misuse and behavioral health services. I am proud that we worked together across party lines earlier this year to reauthorize this critical program, and I look forward to continuing to work with members from both parties, health care providers and other stakeholders to maximize the benefits of health care expansion for all of our people and businesses."
