850,000 Eligible for Texas SCHIP, Not Enrolled
Categories: SCHIP, Texas
In yet another example of why SCHIP expansion is unwise, officials in Texas estimate that up to 850,000 children there are eligible for the program, but not enrolled.
If we're going to have this tack-on to Medicaid--and I'm not conceding that point--then officials ought to reach children in the poorest of poor families. As the latest estimate from Texas shows, however, that's not yet the case.
