You can apply online or call 1-888-222-2542 for an application to be mailed to you.

What is PCN?
The Primary Care Network (PCN) is health plan offered by the Utah Department of Health. It covers services administered by a primary care provider.
Applications are only accepted during open enrollment periods, which are held when resources are available to cover more people. The federal government requires PCN to enroll more parents than people without children. Because of this, PCN may schedule separate enrollment times for parents and those without children. To qualify as a parent, you must have children age 18 or younger living at home with you.

Do I qualify?
Depending on your family size and income, you may qualify for PCN.
