If you are in DFPS custody and receive Medicaid when you turn 18, you qualify for free health insurance until you turn 26. When you leave foster care when you are 18 or older, you should be automatically put on Former Foster Care Children’s (FFCC) Medicaid. But you will have to take steps to stay on it until you turn 26. For more information, see Medicaid and Other Public Benefits.
