Question:

Phoenix Arizona Kids Care Health Insurance?

by  |  earlier

0 LIKES UnLike

I am in the process of getting my children set up with health insurance. I have already went through the big run around of signing them up for AHCCS just in order to be denied. We all knew they would be denied because of their income from SSI, but I was told that to get an application for Kids Care I had to be denied through the AHCCS first. Finally a month later I have the application for Kids Care, which is the health insurance where you pay a monthly premium for your children who don?t currently have health insurance, an their parents or in my case the children make to much money in order to get full state aid health insurance.

  1. Not entirely sure what your question is but KidsCare is Arizona's health insurance for children under 19.

    A child age 18 or younger is eligible if:

    a resident of Arizona

    either a U.S. citizen or a qualified eligible immigrant - regardless of the status of the parents

    not currently covered by other health insurance

    a member of a family that meets the KidsCare income

    See this link for income eligibility http://www.kidscare.state.az.us/English/...

    The child must not:

    Be eligible for health insurance coverage as an employee of the State of Arizona, or family member of a State of Arizona employee

    Be eligible for Medicaid (AHCCS)

    Reside in a public institution or an institution for mental disease

    The child's household must:

    Provide proof of immigrant status for children who are immigrants and want KidsCare

    Have income at or less than the income limit

    Pay the monthly premium when a premium is required

    Provide proof of all income received by the family


  2. Please state your question.

  3. When I had kids care I chose Mercy Care. I had no out of pocket cost. When we had our car stolen Mercy Care provided transportation (24 hour notice is required). 2 of my children have asthma I received their nebulizers in 1 day. Also they had major dental work which required anesthesia at no cost to me. I work for a major insurance company and we receive the least amount of complaints from Mercy Care

    I've bookmarked this site...
