MO HealthNet Premiums for Tribal Members

a native american father, child, and mother

Do I have to pay for my child’s MO HealthNet coverage?

If your child is a member of a federally- recognized American Indian or Native Alaskan tribe, you do not have to pay a premium for your child’s MO HealthNet coverage.

What if I’m already paying a premium? How do I stop paying?

Send a copy of proof of your child’s tribal membership to the Constituent Services Unit.
Include your child’s name and MO
HealthNet identification number (DCN).

What is proof of membership?

To prove your child’s tribal membership, send one of the following:

  • A copy of a tribal membership card
  • A letter issued by a tribe that is recognized by the United States Department of the Interior, Bureau of Indian Affairs
