Text Box: A CONSUMER’S GUIDE TO HEALTH INSURANCE FOR CHILDREN WITH 
SPECIAL HEALTH CARE NEEDS
Text Box:  
Health insurance is a general term used to describe many kinds of insurance coverage.  Generally, when people say “health insurance”, they mean comprehensive medical  and/or dental insurance. 
 
This kind of insurance usually covers most of the costs of keeping you healthy and getting you healthy if you become ill.  
 
For children with special health care needs, this could include use of health insurance services to prevent further delays in development.
