Yes, it is the same as Medicaid. Clients can use the short Children’s Medical application form (DSHS form 14-380) or the Healthy Kids Now form (DSHS form 23-394(x), used by families applying for medical benefits for their children. The client can mail the form to their local Community Service Office (CSO). But, families do not need to visit a CSO to get their children on SCHIP. No in-person interview is necessary.
