Low-Cost Child Health Care

Free Low-Cost Health Care Programs for Children

By Fairfax County Office of Public Affairs, January 2000

Low-income working families in our community who need affordable medical care for their children can now make one simple application for access to a network of free and low-cost health care programs.

For Westlawn and other Fairfax County residents, this comprehensive network of programs includes:

Medicaid
Children's Medical Security Insurance Program
Community Health Care Network
Medical Care for Children Partnership
Inova Pediatric Center

Each program has certain eligibility requirements. The County encourages families to apply, even if they are not certain their child or children qualify. The goal of these programs is to ensure that all children who need health care have access to services when needed.

For an application or more information about any of the affordable medical programs for children in Fairfax County, call the Department of Family Services, 703-234-7763, TTY 703-222-9452; Espanol 703-324-7519; or Fairfax County Human Services Access at 703-222-0880.
