Nebraska DHHS provides financial assistance programs that can help cover medical costs and basic needs when your child has cancer. They run Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) which cover doctor visits, hospital stays, treatments, and prescriptions. You can also get emergency medical assistance for urgent bills you can't pay.
Beyond medical coverage, they offer emergency cash assistance when you're struggling to pay rent or utilities, SNAP food assistance to help feed your family, and energy assistance to keep your lights on during treatment. The Medically Handicapped Children's Program specifically helps families with kids who have serious medical conditions get the care they need.
You can apply online through their iServe Nebraska portal or call their economic assistance hotline. They have local offices throughout the state to help you navigate all the programs available to your family.
