The Pennsylvania Department of Human Services announced that WellKids by RCPA Member PA Health & Wellness will join the network of managed care organizations that offer health coverage through the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP). This marks the first CHIP re-procurement since 2013, expanding the number of affordable health coverage options for children and teens in Pennsylvania. Effective January 2026, CHIP will operate a network of nine managed care organizations, providing comprehensive health coverage for eligible children across the state.

CHIP serves children and teenagers up to age 19 who are not eligible for Medicaid, offering health coverage for free or at a low cost based on family income and providing a variety of insurance plans to best meet a family’s needs. WellKids by PA Health & Wellness will provide a full range of services, including preventative, routine, urgent, and emergency care for physical and behavioral health, as well as coverage for dental, vision, and pharmacy services.

Contact RCPA Policy Associate Emma Sharp with any questions.
