Apply
 
for
Medicaid
 
&
 
CHIP
 
through
 
 
the
 
Health
 
Insurance
 
Marketplace
 
The
 
Marketplace
 
helps
 
individuals
 
and
 
families
 
get
 
health
 
coverage. Some
 
people
 
who
 
apply
 
for
 
coverage
 
through
 
the
 
Marketplace
 
are
 
eligible
 
for
 
coverage
 
through
 
Medicaid
 
or
 
the
 
Children’s
 
Health
 
Insurance
 
Program
 
(CHIP). Their
 
state
 
Medicaid
 
or
 
CHIP
 
agency
 
will
 
enroll
 
them
 
in
 
coverage. Medicaid
 
and
 
CHIP
 
are
 
free
 
or
 
low-cost
 
health
 
programs
 
that
 
cover
 
many
 
benefits
 
including
 
hospitalizations,
 
doctor
 
services,
 
and
 
prescription
 
drugs. Visit
 
HealthCare.gov/medicaid-chip-program-names
 
to
 
learn
 
the
 
Medicaid
 
and
 
CHIP
 
program
 
names
 
in
 
your
 
state. How
 
do
 
I
 
apply
 
for
 
Medicaid
 
or
 
CHIP? You
 
can
 
apply
 
through
 
the
 
Marketplace
 
or
 
directly
 
with
 
your
 
state
 
Medicaid
 
or
 
CHIP
 
agency. To
 
apply
 
through
 
the
 
Marketplace,
 
visit
 
HealthCare.gov
 
to
 
create
 
a
 
Marketplace
 
account
 
and
 
complete
 
an
 
application. Indicate
 
that
 
you
 
would
 
like
 
to
 
see
 
if
 
you
 
can
 
get
 
help
 
paying
 
for
 
coverage. The
 
Marketplace
 
will
 
use
 
your
 
application
 
to
 
see
 
if
 
anyone
 
applying
 
for
 
coverage
 
may
 
be
 
eligible
 
for
 
Medicaid
 
or
 
CHIP.
