Eligibility & Enrollment


About Genesee Health Plan

Genesee Health Plan (GHP) is Genesee County’s plan for better health which began with the vision to have a community where each person has equal and affordable opportunity to live a healthy life. GHP is a nonprofit health care organization that was launched in 2001 to fulfill its vision by providing health care coverage and life-saving services to the uninsured residents of Genesee County.  The plan has provided more than 90,000 county residents with doctor’s visits, cancer screenings, prescription drugs, x-rays and many more life-saving services since 2001, that’s one out of five Genesee County residents that have been on the health plan.  GHP is still here, working hard to make it easier for Genesee County residents to get health care coverage.  Click here for brochure.
