FAMIS is Virginia's health insurance program for children. It makes health care affordable for children of eligible families. FAMIS covers all the medical care growing children need to avoid getting sick, plus the medical care

that will help them if they do get sick or get hurt. There are no enrollment costs or monthly premiums for FAMIS. For some services, the family will have to pay a co-payment. Most co-payments are just $2.00 or $5.00. Some services, like regular check-ups, are free. FAMIS Select
FAMIS Select helps families pay for private or employer- sponsored health insurance. It offers families with children enrolled in FAMIS more health care coverage options. The FAMIS Select program allows families to choose between covering their children through FAMIS or through a private or employer-sponsored health plan. Families who choose to enroll in FAMIS Select can get up to $100 per FAMIS Select enrolled child per month to help pay their family premium. At least one child must be enrolled in FAMIS before the family can enroll in FAMIS Select.
