Press Release
UPMC Health Plan is the newest health insurance company in Pennsylvania to offer health insurance coverage for the Pennsylvania Children's Health Insurance Program, also known as CHIP.
CHIP, offered now by UPMC for Kids, offers free or low-cost health
insurance coverage to children from birth up to age 19. It covers
hospitalizations, immunizations, well-baby visits, emergency care,
prescriptions, dental, vision, home care services, diagnostic services, and
more. It also offers services to help promote health and wellness for the
children who enroll.
UPMC for Kids administers CHIP in a 27-county Western Pennsylvania
service area. Once enrolled, children have access to a full network of
health care providers, similar to UPMC Health Plan's other provider
networks. Seven other insurers offer CHIP throughout the state.
To be eligible for CHIP, children cannot be covered by Medical
Assistance or have any other health coverage
