Child Health Plus Information

New York State has a health insurance plan for kids, called Child Health Plus. 

  • The monthly premium price depends on household income and family size.  There is no monthly premium for families with lower incomes.  
  • Child Health Plus has no annual deductible and no co-payments.

You can enroll your child in Child Health Plus at any time during the year through NY State of Health.  Instructions on how to enroll are available here.
