Children's health insurance through employer-sponsored health insurance programs. Changes the provision in FAMIS on minimum employer contribution from 50 percent towards the cost of dependent or family coverage for an employer's comprehensive health insurance program to be considered employer-sponsored health insurance (ESHI) to a percentage defined in the Virginia Plan for Title XXI of the Social Security Act. Under the current Family Access to Medical Insurance Security Plan, if a family chooses to participate in ESHI and ESHI is deemed cost-effective, the Department of Medical Assistance Services must contribute to the cost of ESHI for eligible dependent children for those program participants that have access to ESHI.
