This information can be found in your owner's manual. If you do not have one, you can obtain one from your dealer or a salvage yard. If it has over 75,000 miles on it, replace the belt. If it has an interference engine, then severe engine damage can occur if the belt breaks. My manual for my 92 prizm states every 60,000 miles for timing belt replacement, the same for valve adjustment. But if the valves aren't making a "ticking" noise I woudn't bother with them.

Have often should you replace a timing belt in a 98 Chevy Prizm?

The Prizm has a timing CHAIN, not belt. The timing chain does not get replaced on a scheduled interval. It should never need to be replaced. The serpentine belt, however, does need to be replaced. Inspect the belt for cracks and glazing, and replace. It is not a difficult DIY job. It is easiest to do it from under the car, after removing the splash pan.

Does a 2002 Chevy Prizm have a timing belt?

NO. There is a timing chain, and under most conditions, lasts the life of the vehicle. Do not get hooked into replacing the timing chain unless absolutely necessary with high mileage and extreme engine abuse. It would cost about $1500 at the dealer.
