About Cover Tennessee

Governor Phil Bredesen developed Cover Tennessee to create health insurance options that are affordable and portable, and meet the needs of the uninsured in our state. Cover Tennessee has four components:

CoverTN is a partnership between the state, employers and individuals that makes health care coverage affordable for everyone. Complete the VERIFICATION APPLICATION to find out if you qualify.

CoverKids offers comprehensive health coverage to uninsured children in Tennessee, age 18 and under, and pregnant women.

CoverRx offers affordable medication to low income, uninsured Tennesseans.

AccessTN provides a comprehensive health insurance plan for seriously ill adults who have been turned down by insurance companies.

Cover Tennessee is not an entitlement program — it is voluntary health insurance coverage that is affordable to participants and affordable to the state.
Dear Tennessean, Cover Tennessee is practical, down-to-earth health insurance that was developed to offer affordable, portable health coverage to Tennesseans who are living without health insurance today. We don’t have it in our power to provide free health insurance to everyone without limits. But we can offer access to health insurance for those who want it. It’s a reasonable first step, and I believe we are on the right track. There are several different insurance products available under Cover Tennessee, so be certain to look for the one that best suits your needs. I encourage you to stay informed of our progress in the coming months by checking this site. Thank you for your support.

Warmest regards, Governor Phil Bredesen
