Low-income families will find health insurance opportunities through Indiana's Family and Social Services Administration. Medicaid offers coverage to those living under the poverty limit, while Hoosier Healthwise, the state's low-income insurance for children, covers uninsured children as well as low-income adults with a family. Higher income people may have to pay a low premium for coverage. Other governmentally-funded programs include the Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program.

While many will qualify for state or federal assistance, there are many families who just barely make too much to be covered. There are still options available for these families, including:

• Medical discount plans: These private health insurance plans offer consumers up to 40% off medical costs, including office visits, immunizations and hospitalization. The cost begins at $19.95/month per person.
• Association medical plans: For those who are involved in an association or club, insurers will often allow members to sign up together for group insurance coverage at a cheaper rate than each member could get individually.
• Indiana Comprehensive Health Insurance Association (ICHIA): This program is for individuals whose health status excludes them from qualifying for a standard health insurance policy.
