Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
Offer Free Or Low-Cost Health Coverage To Children And Families
If you are eligible for health coverage from your employer, but are unable to afford the premiums, some States have
premium assistance programs that can help pay for coverage. These States use funds from their Medicaid or CHIP
programs to help people who are eligible for employer-sponsored health coverage but need assistance in paying their
health premiums.
If you or your dependents are already enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, you can contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office
to find out if premium assistance is available. A list of all States and contact information can be found at
www.dol.gov/ebsa/chipmodelnotice.doc.
If you or your dependents are NOT currently enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP, and you think you or any of your dependents
might be eligible for either of these programs, you can contact your State Medicaid or CHIP office or dial 1-877-KIDS
NOW or www.insurekidsnow.gov to find out how to apply. If you qualify, you can ask the State if it has a program that
might help you pay the premiums for an employer-sponsored plan.
Once it is determined that you or your dependents are eligible for premium assistance under Medicaid or CHIP, your
employer’s health plan is required to permit you and your dependents to enroll in the plan – as long as you and your
dependents are eligible, but not already enrolled in the employer’s plan. This is called a “special enrollment” opportunity,
and you must request coverage within 60 days of being determined eligible for premium assistance.
