1 Total number of Medicaid clients under the age of 19. These point in time counts offer a preliminary look at enrollment for any given month. The numbers are not final because Medicaid offers up to three months of retroactive coverage for eligible individuals. It takes about eight months to determine the final count for Medicaid enrollment.
2Total number of children enrolled in the traditional Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP).
3CHIP Perinate Program began in January 2007. Enrollment numbers are in addition to the numbers of children enrolled in traditional CHIP and are not included in other CHIP enrollment reports. Individuals are enrolled retrospectively (coverage begins the month the person is certified). This causes data available for reporting to be delayed at least one month.
