Child & Teen Checkups
Child and Teen Checkups (C&TC) health checks are a benefit for children and teens, birth to 21 years of age, who are enrolled in Medical Assistance (MA). To enroll in MA, contact Morrison County Social Services at 320-632-2951 and ask for a financial intake worker.
Children and teens enrolled in a health plan must get C&TC services from that plan. Regular health checkups are important to stay in good health. C&TC health checks help find and treat problems early. Health plans have incentive programs; contact us to request vouchers or contact your health plan website directly.
