Children's Special Health Care Services

Children's Special Health Care Services (CSHCS) is a program within the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services that provides supplemental, diagnosis specific health care coverage for children and some adults with special health care needs. Muskegon County has over 900 participants currently enrolled in the program. CSHCS helps persons with chronic health problems by providing:

Coverage and referral for specialty services and equipment, based on your child's health problems. Family centered services to support you in your primary role as caretaker of your child. Community-based services to help you care for your child at home and maintain normal routines. Culturally competent services which demonstrate awareness of cultural differences. Coordinated services to pull together the services of many different providers who work within different agencies.

Your child must have a qualifying medical condition and be 20 years old or under. Persons 21 and older with cystic fibrosis or certain blood coagulation disorders may also qualify for services. Participants may have health insurance in addition to enrolling in the CSHCS program. CSHCS covers more than 3,000 diagnoses. Some common medical conditions that may qualify are:

• Amputations • Asthma (Severe) • Blood Clotting Disorders • Burns • Cancer • Cerebral Palsy • Chronic Lung Conditions • Cleft Palate/Cleft Lip • Club Foot • Cystic Fibrosis • Deformed Limbs • Diabetes (Insulin Dependent) • Epilepsy • Hearing Loss • Heart Conditions • Hemophilia • Kidney Disease • Muscular Dystrophy • Neurological Disorders • Paralysis • Sickle Cell Anemia • Spina Bifida • Spinal Injuries • Vision Disorders

The first step in the application process is determining if your child is medically eligibile. In order to do this, a Release of Information form must be sent by you to each of the specialty doctors, hospitals, or clinics treating your child. The health care provider will then mail the Release of Information form, along with the most recent comprehensive medical information on your child, to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services for review. A medical doctor will review your child’s medical records to determine eligibility. The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services with send you a letter notifying you whether or not your child qualifies.

If you receive a letter denying medical eligibility, then an explanation of why your child is not eligible for the program will be included. If you receive a letter approving medical eligibility, then an official application for CSHCS for your child will be included. This application must be filled out completely and returned to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services.

If your child medically qualifies for CSHCS, then you must fill out a financial assessment (which is part of the application). Some families will have to pay a monthly fee for participation in the program, which is determined by family size and income. If your child is eligible for Michigan Medicaid, then your child will be enrolled without cost to the family.
