What Is CHIP?
CHIP Program is a crucial component of the US
healthcare system, offering affordable health
coverage to millions of children from low- income
families. Established in 1997, CHIP program was
made to address the gap in healthcare coverage
for children whose families earned too much to
qualify for Medicaid but still couldn't afford
private insurance. At its core, CHIP operates as
a federal-state partnership. The federal
government provides funding to states to
administer their own CHIP programs, allowing for
flexibility in designing coverage to satisfy the
unique needs of each state's population while
adhering to federal guidelines. One of the key
attributes of CHIP health insurance is its
emphasis on comprehensive coverage for children.
