Healthcare+Grant

· Parents and legal guardians may apply for grants of **//up to $5,000//** each for child medical services and equipment by completing an online application at the UHCCF Web site.  If a grant is approved for the child, the grant will help pay for approved medical services/items after the child’s commercial health benefit plan submits payment for services provided, if any. The grant funds are not paid to the parent or child directly – invoices/bills are submitted to UHCCF for approved medical services/items after the commercial health benefit plan submits initial payment (if any) to the health care provider. · In January 2006, the United Healthcare Children's Foundation was expanded to all 50 states; hence, funds are available nationwide . To be eligible for a grant, children must be 16 years of age or younger. **Deadline: Open.** http://www.uhccf.org/
