Certified Application Counselors (CAC) assist you on The Health Insurance Marketplace for insurance so you and your family can get and stay healthy.

Health Insurance Marketplace
The Health Insurance Marketplace is the on-line shop for health insurance so you and your family can get and stay healthy.
Medicaid
Medicaid is the state's health coverage program for low-income residents who meet certain criteria. As of June 26, 2017, more than 433,000 Louisiana residents lacked coverage for essential health care services a year ago, now have coverage because of Medicaid expansion. More important than having coverage is using the coverage to visit a primary care doctor for an annual check-up, having prescription coverage and being covered for wellness visits and screenings.
LaChip
Louisiana Children’s Health Insurance Program:(LaChip) is free or low cost health insurance program for children. The program covers school physicals, doctors’ visits and more.
