Health Coverage: AHCCCS, AIHP & KidsCare

If you need health coverage, start here to compare AHCCCS, the American Indian Health Program and KidsCare.

If you do not have health coverage

Apply through Health-e-Arizona Plus. The same application can screen your household for AHCCCS health coverage, Nutrition Assistance and Cash Assistance. You can also call AHCCCS at 1-800-654-8713.

If you are American Indian or Alaska Native

If you are enrolled with the Yavapai-Apache Nation, you may be eligible for direct care through the Yavapai-Apache Nation Medical Center and Indian Health Service facilities, including Phoenix Indian Medical Center. Eligible members can generally seek direct care at an IHS facility when it has the staff and services needed. Tribal clinics may have their own registration or eligibility rules, so call before visiting.

IHS and Tribal clinic care is separate from AHCCCS or KidsCare. If you qualify for AHCCCS or KidsCare, you may choose an AHCCCS Complete Care plan or the American Indian Health Program (AIHP). AIHP can be used with Indian Health Service, Tribal 638, urban Indian health facilities and other AHCCCS providers.
