Children’s Medical Security Plan (CMSP) is a state-designed program that provides health coverage to low-income children under the age of 19 who are not eligible for MassHealth and who have limited or no health insurance.
- Coverage is free to families with gross household income below 200% of the federal poverty level, and is available to families with higher income for a small premium. For a family of three, 200% of the federal poverty level works out to be an annual income of about $34,342, or a monthly income of $2,862.
- Covered services include well-child visits and immunizations, doctor visits, vision and dental care, laboratory tests and x-rays. Limited prescription drug benefit and mental health and substance abuse coverage are also available.
