I am sure. Many doctors and pharmacies opt not to charge the $3 copay but they have an option of charging it – check it out on their benefit cards – it says it. If they are on FHP, all their kids are NOT on CHP – any baby under the age of 1 is automatically on Medicaid as are children up to age 5. Only children between the ages of 6-18 are eligible for CHP if the parents are eligible for FHP. Check out income eligiblity for both and you’ll see (or just ask your employees) For the children, there are no premiums or copays
