Eligibility Requirements. Following are the current income eligibility guidelines for free, high-quality health insurance. To find out if you’re covered, locate the number of people in your family on the left of the chart, then go to the right to find the corresponding income level. If you make that amount or less, you are eligible. If your income is slightly more than that amount, you should still call the Maternal and Child Health Hotline in case you are eligible due to certain deductibles.
