Health Care for Children—Care for Kids

Care for Kids (CFK) is a low-cost program that provides health care to uninsured low-income children up to age 19 who are not eligible for other state or federal health programs.  CFK, which is funded by Montgomery County and administered by the PCC, provides for doctor visits, medicines, laboratory tests, optometric care, and oral health services.  The Primary Care Coalition also provides programs for CFK children that encourage healthy lifestyles.

To apply for CFK, pick up an application for the Maryland Children’s Health program at any Montgomery County school or library, and mail it in.  The form allows you to apply for both the Maryland Children’s Health program and the Care for Kids program.  For more information, call 240.777.3120 (Rockville), 240.777.3066 (Silver Spring), or 240.777.3591 (Germantown).
