Medicaid and Health Choice

North Carolina Health Choice (NCHC) and Medicaid in Jackson County, NC

Individuals who need medical assistance can apply for North Carolina Health Choice (NCHC) or Medicaid in Jackson County, NC. The public health insurance program, Medicaid, offers support with medical expenses for low-income families with children, disabled adults, and seniors. NCHC provides health coverage for uninsured kids when the family income is at or below 200% of the federal poverty level.
Your child or children may be eligible for NCHC if your family earns too much to be eligible for Medicaid but not enough to pay escalating health insurance premiums. Contact us with any questions you may have about NCHC and Medicaid.
