2024 Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
Posted by Commonwealth of Pennsylvania on August 20, 2024
CHIP covers uninsured children and teens up to age 19 – and no family earns too much to qualify. With nearly 128,000 uninsured children in Pennsylvania, this is great news for families!
CHIP provides quality, comprehensive health insurance for routine doctor’s visits, prescriptions, dental, eye care, eyeglasses, mental health, and much more. CHIP covers uninsured kids who are not eligible for Medical Assistance. For many families, CHIP is free – for others, it is low cost.
If you work with children, please promote this resource. By distributing the flyer at the beginning of the school year, we help ensure that all students, including those new to your LEA and incoming kindergarteners, receive the information about the program as soon as possible if they are in need.
The flyer and many more resources can be found on the CHIP website under CHIP Resources.
The CHIP program is pleased to partner with LEAs in helping families find affordable health insurance for their children. After all, healthy kids are better students!
