Family Health Plus

Family Health Plus is available to single adults, couples without children, and parents with limited income, who are between the ages of 19 and 64, are residents of New York State and United States citizens or fall under one of many immigration categories. If you have health insurance — either on your own or through your employer — you are not eligible to enroll. There are no limits on the amount of assets or resources (such as a bank account) that you can have and still be eligible to enroll in Family Health Plus. How much income you and your family can have and still be eligible for Family Health Plus depends upon how many people are in your family.
