The State of Utah and the Federal Government both offer several programs to provide alternative health insurance plans to Utah residents. These plans help cover individuals and families who are unable to obtain other coverage.
HIPUtah
This program is a state-run insurance program for people with high health risks.
Federal-HIPUtah
This program is a temporary, federally subsidized health insurance program that provides coverage to uninsured individuals with pre-existing conditions.
Health Coverage Tax Credit
This program is administered by the IRS and may pay up to 65% of health care premiums for eligible individuals. Call 877-529-5578.
Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
CHIP is a state health insurance plan for children. Depending on income and family size, working Utah families who do not have other health insurance may qualify for CHIP.
Families with children who do not qualify for CHIP or other government coverage may apply for a SelectHealth’s Kids Plan. Some members on these plans may qualify for premium assistance, if the family meets income criteria.
Utah's Premium Partnership (UPP)
UPP is a state-run program that helps working individuals and families by helping them pay premiums for their work-provided health plan.
