- A limited amount of free data and minutes per month
- Unlimited text messages per month

**Lifeline benefit provided varies by carrier; please check with your carrier of choice for details before signing up.
Important Note About the Lifeline Program
The Lifeline program and discounted phone service are not a part of your HUSKY Health benefit. You may be eligible because you are a HUSKY Health member, but these services are available through participating cell phone providers, not directly from HUSKY Health.
