Healthy Families資格
Can Immigrants use the Healthy Families Program?
Healthy Families Helps Children
Healthy Families covers health care for children under age 19. Parents have
to pay a small amount. Healthy Families helps children in families with
incomes below $3,130 a month for a family of three and $3,771 a month for a
family of
four. (That is 250% of the federal poverty level for a family of that size.)
You should still apply even if your income is higher. That is because some
money does not count, especially if you work or get child support.
To get Healthy Families, children must be:
· Citizens
· Lawful permanent residents
· Refugees, asylees, recipients of withholding of deportation, paroled into
the U.S. for at least one year
· Cubans or Haitians
· Conditional entrants
· A battered child (or a child of a battered parent)
· Victims of trafficking
