Description
|
Adjusts funding for the Commonwealth's Medicaid Children's Health Insurance Program to reflect the latest expenditure forecast. Children between the ages of 6 and 19, with family income from 100 to 133 percent of the federal poverty level, are eligible for this program. The general fund amount reflects the loss of enhanced federal matching dollars as the match rate for CHIP programs decreased from 76.5 percent to 65 percent in federal FY 2021. In addition to replacing lost federal revenue, costs are being driven by continued enrollment growth and higher managed care rates. |
