CHIP Resources for Advocates
Families USA has assembled a 500-page notebook containing the most useful resources we have been able to find to help state advocates working on implementation of the new children's health insurance program. There are sections on the following topics:
- The Basics,
- State Data,
- Getting It Right,
- Medicaid or Not,
- Benefits,
- Cost Sharing,
- Outreach and Coordination,
- Crowd Out,
- Quality and Access,
- Managed Care,
- Children with Special Needs,
- Special Populations, and
- Key Contacts.
In addition to materials prepared by Families USA, we include materials from dozens of other organizations. The cost of "CHIP Resources for Advocates" is $30 including shipping charges.
