Members receive more than just health insurance. Kids also get full dental and vision coverage, access to free health and wellness programs and so much more.
What is CHIP coverage?
CHIP is a program that provides low-cost health insurance to all uninsured Pennsylvania children and teens, regardless of household income. If enrolled in CHIP, your child will have complete medical coverage, as well as dental and vision insurance, prescriptions, vaccinations and other benefits. Coverage is available at low or no cost, depending on your income.
Who is eligible for CHIP?
CHIP covers all PA kids. Any uninsured child or teen up to age 19 who doesn’t qualify for medical assistance will be covered by our GHP Kids CHIP plan. Whether you’ve lost health insurance through your job or your benefits are too expensive, GHP Kids is there for your child.
