• Texas leads the nation in uninsured children. How can we change that?

  Outreach helps, but here are four ways the state could help enormously:
  1. Eliminate the asset test.
  2. Increase eligibility for children’s Medicaid from 6 months to 12 months.
  3. Allow CHIP buy-in for families above 200% of the federal poverty level.
  4. Implementing the “express lane” process that many other states use for enrollment and renewals.
