Budget Round | Amended Bill |
Half Sheet Number | 291 #2c |
Description
This amendment directs the Secretary of Health and Human Resources to convene a workgroup to research and recommend strategies for the financing of health care services for undocumented immigrant children. Approximately 13,000 immigrant children in Virginia lack health insurance and approximately 9,000 of those children live under 200 percent of the federal poverty level. They do not qualify for CHIP-funded (Children s Health Insurance Program) health insurance due to their immigration status. |
