Delaware Healthy Children Program

Uninsured children qualify for the Delaware Healthy Children Program if they have no health insurance and are a resident of Delaware. Applicants must be less than 19 years old and U.S. citizen or a qualified non-citizen. The applicant's family income needs to fall within the income guidelines.

Qualified applicants must wait six months for health coverage to start.

Healthy Children covers:

  • Office visits and Immunizations
  • Well-child visits, and routine exams
  • In-Patient Hospital Care
  • Prescription drugs
  • X-rays and diagnostic labs
  • Speech therapy
  • Mental health counseling
  • Physical therapy
  • Emergency and ambulance

Coventry/Delaware Care and First State Health Plan offer the Healthy Children coverage

Monthly premiums range between $10 and $25 per month. There are no co-payments for covered services including prescription drugs.

Members are covered for 12 months at a time. Prior to renewal, members must reapply to re-establish eligibility for another 12-month term.
