ARKids First
RKids First health insurance provides two coverage options for more than 70,000 Arkansas children who otherwise might have gone without. ARKids A offers low-income families a comprehensive package of benefits. ARKids B provides coverage for families with higher incomes. We have streamlined the application process for both packages, allowing you to apply for either package on the same form. Here are some other important highlights:
* You can get an ARKids First application by calling our toll-free hotline, 1-888-474-8275. You do not have to visit a DHS office.
* We will give you complete information to help you determine which ARKids First benefit package is best for your children, ARKids A or ARKids B.
* You can print an application from our Web site using your home computer. Or you can go to your local library for assistance.
* None of the benefits have changed for either benefit package.
Your children's health is our main concern. If you have questions, call our ARKids First toll-free hotline or visit your local DHS office or public library.
