概述 | Launched in January 2003, the Children\u0027s Health Initiative is designed to ensure that 100 percent of the county’s children have access to comprehensive health insurance coverage through increasing the number of children enrolled in existing public health insurance programs (Healthy Families and Medi-Cal) and establishing a new insurance product, Healthy Kids, for children not eligible for public- or employer-based insurance. Early findings from the five-year evaluation include rapid enrollment growth in Healthy Kids, with most of the children coming from poor immigrant families; low rates of service use for Healthy Kids compared to Healthy Families and Medi-Cal; some decline in hospital admissions and emergency room visits for uninsured children; and strengthened communitywide collaboration to address issues of the uninsured.", |
