How long does CHP+ coverage last?

For children, CHP+ coverage begins the date the application is received at the CHP+ office, a Application Assistance Site, or a county office. Coverage lasts for 12 months.
For pregnant women, CHP+ Prenatal Care Program coverage begins the date the application is received at the CHP+ office, a Application Assistance Site, or a county office. Coverage ends 60 days after the last day of the month your pregnancy ends.

How do I renew CHP+ coverage?

Children enrolled in CHP+ must reapply every year. CHP+ will send you a packet about 3 months before your child�s coverage ends. Complete this and return it to CHP+ as soon as possible. If you do not receive a renewal packet, call CHP+ Customer Service at (800) 359-1991 to ask for one.
Pregnant women enrolled in the CHP+ Prenatal Care Program cannot renew coverage after their pregnancy ends. If you do become pregnant again, however, you can apply again.

Can I enroll my newborn baby?

Call CHP+ Customer Service at (800) 359-1991 to see if your baby qualifies for CHP+.

What if I move?

Call us and tell us your new address as soon as you move. CHP+ sends letters to families letting them know about their benefits, so it is very important that we have a correct address. If you move out of state, you no longer qualify for CHP+ benefits. To find programs in other states, visit www.insurekidsnow.gov.
