The federal policy that kept people continuously enrolled in Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Plan (CHIP) during the COVID-19 public health emergency has ended. Supporting the transition to normal operations is crucial to keeping children, families, and the early care and education (ECE) workforce healthy and safe. The Administration of Children and Families (ACF) is partnering with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to make sure everyone maintains health coverage.
Join this train-the-trainer webinar to learn more about how to help children, families, and the ECE workforce maintain or access health coverage as states restart Medicaid and CHIP renewals. This webinar includes an interactive Q&A session with the presenters.
