Is CHI maximizing existing federal and state resources?
CHI’s mission is to enroll children into all available health coverage programs without supplanting existing federal and state dollars with local private and public resources. CHI relies first on Medi-Cal and Healthy Families and turns to Healthy Kids only for children who do not meet the Medi-Cal and Healthy Families eligibility criteria. CHI also requires eligible Healthy Kids members to use the existing California Children’s Services (CCS) program for certain physical disabilities.
