Grants Available for Families Struggling with Child Health-Related Costs

The UnitedHealthcare Children's Foundation has announced that new grants are available to
help children who need critical health care treatment, services, or equipment not covered or not
fully covered by their parents' health benefit plans. UHCCF provides grants to families to help
pay for child health care services such as speech therapy, physical therapy, occupational therapy
sessions, prescriptions, and medical equipment such as wheelchairs, orthotics, and eyeglasses.

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. To be eligible for
grants, children must be 16 years of age or younger.

Families must meet economic guidelines, reside in the United States, and be covered by a
commercial health benefit plan.
