Blue Jersey's Jay Lassiter interviews Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ) on challenges facing the State Children's Health Insurance Program under the Bush Administration. Menendez talks about his fight for working families in New Jersey and around the country. With participating states facing huge funding shortfalls, the Senator secured $650 million in supplemental appropriations for SCHIP (with $100 million coming to NJ) and he is fighting the Bush Administration's attempts to pull the rug out from under currently insured people -- 110,000 in New Jersey alone. This is one of three topics the Senator was interviewed on. The other videos can be found at BlueJersey.com.

On ABC's This Week today, New Jersey Gov. John Corzine refuted Bush administration claims that families with incomes as high as $83,000 are being covered by the program. He then pointed out what the program really does to help children.

As I said in my previous post, there was too much good material from Maher's show last night to use. Now this segment is about the discussion of the SCHIP program and the Dems using a 12-year-old as a prop, who is theoretically unassailable (because he is a child, after all), but since they used him in their radio address, as Tucker points out, he, too, is fair game.

Up SCHIP Creek without insurance The State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) is a national program in the United States which provides health insurance for families who earn too much money to qualify for Medicaid, yet cannot afford to buy private insurance. The program was created to address the growing number of children in the United States without health insurance. At its creation in 1997, SCHIP was the largest expansion of health insurance coverage for children in the United States since Medicaid began in the 1960s. The statutory authority for SCHIP is under title XXI of the Social Security Act. Proposals are currently in Congress to expand SCHIP by $35 billion over five years. SCHIP covered 6.9 million children at some point during Federal fiscal year 2006, and every state has an approved plan. States are given flexibility, and an enhanced match is paid to states. Some states have received Section 1115 demonstration authority to use SCHIP funds to cover the parents of children receiving benefits from both SCHIP and Medicaid, pregnant women, and other adults. However, the program is already facing funding shortfalls in several states. In 2007, researchers from Brigham Young University and Arizona State found that children who drop out of SCHIP cost states more money because they shift away from routine care to more frequent emergency care situations. The conclusion of the study is that an attempt to cut the costs of a state program could create a false savings because other government organizations pick up the tab for the children who leave SCHIP and later need care.
