Finding the right health coverage can be confusing—but you don’t have to do it alone. Heartland Health Services’ trained Community Health Workers are here to guide you through your options, answer your questions, and help you apply for coverage that fits your needs and budget. Our services are completely free and open to everyone, whether or not you are a Heartland patient.

Beyond basic health coverage enrollment, we help maximize your healthcare benefits and financial assistance options.

Moms & Babies: Illinois Moms & Babies is a Medicaid program that provides comprehensive healthcare coverage for pregnant women and their babies up to one year after birth. This program ensures access to essential prenatal, delivery, and postpartum care, as well as doctor visits, hospital services, and prescriptions at little to no cost. At Heartland Health Services, our team is here to assist eligible patients with enrollment, helping them receive the care they need for a healthy pregnancy and baby.

All Kids: Illinois All Kids is a state program that provides comprehensive healthcare coverage for children, regardless of family income or immigration status. This program ensures that kids have access to doctor visits, dental care, vision services, prescriptions, and more at little to no cost. Heartland Health Services is committed to helping families navigate the enrollment process so their children can receive the quality care they need to grow up healthy and strong.

Family Planning Program/Presumptive Eligibility: The Family Planning Program (FPP) provides confidential, low-cost, or free reproductive health services to individuals of all ages. This program covers essential care such as birth control, annual exams, STI testing and treatment, pregnancy counseling, and more. At Heartland Health Services, we support patients by offering access to these vital services, ensuring they receive the care and education needed to make informed decisions about their reproductive health.

Family Planning Presumptive Eligibility (FPPE) provides immediate, temporary coverage for family planning services to eligible individuals. This program ensures quick access to the same essential services as the Family Planning Program. The FPPE application process does not take immigration status into account, making it accessible to more individuals in need. At Heartland Health Services, we help patients navigate this process so they can receive the care they need without delay.
