BadgerCare Plus (http://www.dhs.wisconsin.gov/badgercareplus/)

BadgerCare Plus is a new program for children under 19 years of age and families in Wisconsin who need and want health insurance.

BadgerCare Plus is for all children, regardless of income.

BadgerCare Plus is about more than just children. It also offers access to comprehensive, affordable health care to many families and pregnant women in Wisconsin.

BadgerCare Plus is designed for people who do not currently have access to health insurance. It is not designed to replace private insurance. For that reason, specific rules have been established that do not allow most people to drop their private insurance to participate in BadgerCare Plus.

If you would like more information about BadgerCare Plus call member services at 1-800-362-3002.
