The Birthday Card that
Keeps on Giving

Community Health Plan wants to keep your children safe and healthy. That’s why we have started sending special birthday postcards to children when they turn 6 months, 9 months, 15 months, 18 months, and 3 years old. The postcards are a reminder to schedule well-child exams and immunizations (shots).

Community Health Plan knows how busy parents are. We hope the birthday postcards can help in planning for these important appointments.

Children First™

And don’t forget about Community Health Plan’s Children First program! The Children First program rewards members for getting their immunizations and well-child checks. Your child could get one of these items for FREE:
  • HealthWise handbook
  • Thermometer
  • Infant grooming kit
  • Toddler cupboard locks
  • Bicycle helmet
