We employ licensed Indiana Navigators here to help La Porte and Porter County families enroll in and understand state and federal health insurance programs such as Medicaid, Hoosier Healthwise, Presumptive Eligibility for Pregnant Women, the Healthy Indiana Plan and the Health Insurance Marketplace.
Our mission is to help children, families, and adults with the application process, submitting documents, and obtain health coverage. We will provide the information you need to understand copays, power account payments, deductibles, setting up appointments with a primary care provider, and getting the most out of preventive care benefits. Our goal is simple- Make sure your family enrolls in coverage, knows how to use it, and maintain coverage once approved.

You will need to bring the following items along for your appointment: Photo ID, Birth Certificate, Social Security Card, Bank Statement, Utility Bills, Mortgage Statement/Rent Receipt/Landlord Letter, Vehicle Registration or Title, Proof of other income, Proof of Pregnancy, Proof of childcare costs, Proof of child support costs, and Letter from employer stating that you have no access to health insurance (for HIP applicants only).
