Kansas to Modernize CHIP: New Bill Passes Senate, Expands Coverage for Kids
A new bill in Kansas aims to modernize the Childrens Health Insurance Program (CHIP) by switching to the current federal poverty level, expanding coverage for more kids. The bill, which passed unanimously in the Senate, would increase the income limit for CHIP eligibility from $53,000 to $82,500 for a family of four. This change would help over 57,000 kids already enrolled in CHIP and 15,000 in a Medicare hybrid. The bill has bipartisan support and is expected to pass, ensuring Kansas kids get the health coverage they need.
