Affordable Child Health Insurance In San Antonio Texas

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.
