Finding affordable health insurance is no easy task unless you are employed by a business that offers a health benefits package. Unfortunately, not everyone works, or works for an employer who offers a group health insurance plan to his or her employees. If you or your spouse doesn’t have affordable health insurance in San Antonio, Texas, how is your child supposed to obtain affordable child health insurance? Imagine trying to find affordable child health insurance for your child if you’re having difficulty finding affordable health insurance for yourself.
If you live in San Antonio, Texas, or anywhere in Texas for that matter, and have a child or children who are without adequate health insurance, you may want to look into Medicaid for Texas Children.
Medicaid for Texas Children is both a state and federal assistance program that provides children with excellent comprehensive health insurance at affordable prices or at no cost at all. To be eligible for Medicaid for Texas Children, a child must be a resident of the United States and of Texas, under the age of 19. The family of the child applying for Medicaid for Texas Children must meet the Medicaid of Texas Children income requirements.
If a child belongs to a family that receives Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, also referred to as TANF, the child will instantly qualify for Medicaid for Texas Children. Otherwise, the child’s eligibility is determined by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, also referred to as HHSC. If a child is found to be eligible for Medicaid for Texas Children, his or her family’s financial status may be evaluated every half year or so to make sure the child is still eligible.
For more information about the Medicaid for Texas Children program, visit the Texas Department of Insurance Web site, or give them a call. You can also visit the Web site of the Texas Health and Human Services System.
