How to Keep Your Health Insurance if You Lose Your Job

New Jersey has a government-sponsored program for premium assistance for individuals with HIV or AIDS who can no longer work or must work part time. If you qualify, the New Jersey Health Insurance Continuation Program (HICP) will pay the monthly health insurance premiums for you and your family.

For more information and to apply, contact 1-800-353-3232 or ask your case manager or provider. Note: Continuation of your health insurance coverage must be done within 60 days after the change in your employment status.
