Healthcare regulations change each year and can take many by surprise. Families find their coverage different and not sustainable for their full needs or for their children. UnitedHealthcare Children's Foundation offers families the opportunity to discover if their child can qualify for up to $10,000 in medical grants.
UnitedHealthcare Children's Foundation (UHCCF) is a non-profit organization that provides medical grants to help children gain access to health-related services not covered, or not fully covered, by their family's commercial health insurance plan. Families may receive up to $5,000 annually per child ($10,000 lifetime maximum per child), and do not need to have insurance through UnitedHeathcare to be eligible.
Visit UHCCF.org to apply, donate, or learn more about opportunities and resources that may be available to you. Please bring any information or application status with you at your next visit.
