NYS Health Insurance Available for Eligible Children and Families

Do you know of anyone who is currently without health insurance? 

Without health insurance, children and adults are left to rely on a patchwork system for necessary medical care. Children who are uninsured are more likely to go without essential health services, miss school because of untreated illness, and end up in the emergency room for preventable conditions. 

To close the insurance gap, New York State is expanding eligibility for children and families by making it easier to sign up for and keep their health insurance coverage. I am excited to announce that the Eden Central School District now has a Facilitated Enroller who will assist our Eden families in filling out and filing the necessary paperwork needed to access free or low-cost health insurance.
