Access to health coverage


  • We advocate for access to health care coverage.
  • One in five women of childbearing age is uninsured.
  • More than 8 million children under age 19 are uninsured.

Where can I find out about getting insurance coverage for my child?

The first place to inquire is with your state insurance commissioner's office. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services also has a Web site to help parents determine if their children are eligible for free or low-cost health coverage under the reauthorized Children's Health Insurance Program. Visit http://www.insurekidsnow.gov/ for more information.
